Ernest Bloch

Schelomo

Ernst Bloch’s “Schelomo – Rhapsodie Hébraïque” is indisputably one of the most poignant masterpieces for the cello and represents the crowning achievement of his celebrated “Jewish Cycle.” In this monumental work, the cello’s rich and cantabile voice embodies the wise King Solomon, meditating on the vanity and profound depths of human existence.

This sheet music edition from the renowned publisher G. Schirmer presents the compelling version for cello and piano. It offers cellists an intensely emotional repertoire highlight filled with dramatic fervor, captivating colors, and virtuosic passion. An indispensable classic for ambitious musicians looking to bring extraordinary spiritual depth and expressive power to their concert repertoire.
