Joe talks to a Jewish shopkeeper |
| Description: |
This theme sounds like Jewish liturgical chanting;a monophonic string melody with a Jewish character; the fact that she has her own theme may indicate that Joe is sympathetic towards her |

| Analysis: |
The melodic augmented second between LE and TI and the occurrence of FI give this melody a Jewish flavor (it's a Hungarian or "gypsy minor" scale); it is presented in a free rhythmic style reminiscent of a Jewish cantor |
