Biography
Vladimir Heifetz (1893-1970) was a Russian-American pianist, composer, conductor and choral director. Born into a musical family (he was a cousin of violinist, Jascha Heifetz), Heifetz trained in Russia as a pianist at the St. Petersburg Conservatory of Music and he performed as an accompanist for Fyodor Chaliapin. After settling in New York, Heifetz served as the music and choir director of Temple Anshe Chesed for many years. He also had a long association with the chorus of the Poale Zion (Farband) and the Yiddish Culture Chorus. He created numerous compositions, arrangements, and orchestrations, primarily on Jewish themes. Among his works, Heifetz composed a symphony, an opera, an oratorio, and a number of cantatas. He also created music for the Yiddish Art Theater, Folksbiene Theater, and for several motion pictures.
