The long history of Jewish folk song has resulted in a rich and varied repertoire of songs. The songs deal with religion, history, festivals and celebrations. The melodies featured in Shalom! reflect this panoply of subjects and range widely in mood, from lament to rejoicing.
I. V’ha’ir Shushan & Havdala
V’ha’irShushan describes the victory celebration of the citizens of the walled city of Shushan. This is based on a story in the Book of Esther. Havdala is sung at a ceremony in Jewish homes and synagogues. It concludes the Sabbath and other religious festivals.
II. Kanerot Halalu & Ba’olam Haba
Hanerot Halalu is sung to accompany the lighting of candles at Hanukkah. Ba’olam Hobo is set to words that speak of the world to come. The “world to come” can mean either the world after death or the world that is to follow the messianic millennium.
Ill. Mishenichnas Adar, Ani Purim & yom Toy Lanu
The three songs used in this movement celebrate the festival of Purim, which commemorates a major victory over oppression. It is recounted in the Megi!ah, the scroll of the story of Esther. Purim takes place on the fourteenth and fifteenth days of Adar, the twelfth month of the Jewish calendar.

The characteristic so typical of Jewish folk music is clearly apparent in this arrangement of the Jewish folk song, Shalom Alechem. It is typical in the sense, in that, in spite of the minor key, songs are often cheerful by nature, Johan Nijs managed to capture this perfectly in this outstanding arrangement.
