Abstract This chapter focuses on the different modalities of collective musical experience in the Jewish home, through the prism of zemiroth repertoires practiced in Ashkenazi families in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. It does so in the context of mapping the sources of zemiroth and their transmission. Examining the zemiroth repertoire of one individual belonging to the religious Zionist community reveals that life story and social affiliations interlink with collectives of different kinds; indeed, the zemiroth repertoire sung at home can serve as a weekly connection to various social webs of geographic, familial, religious, and even political nature in the course of a single meal. And yet while certain melodies in a family’s zemiroth repertoire signify their belonging to ethnic and regional collectives, others show their affiliation to innovative religious, social, or national movements (specific Hasidic courts, yeshivas, and national religious youth movements).
