His work divides into four main periods. In the earliest, he falls under the influence of Richard Strauss and Modest Mussorgsky Printemps-Hiver Claude Debussy and strengthens the Mussorgsky ties. This results in his opera Macbeth , considered by many as the finest operatic version of a Shakespearean tragedy. The ties to Mussorgsky's Boris Godunov are apparent, but Bloch has made Mussorgsky's devices (irregular metrical shifts, odd chord progressions and cadences) his own. In the second, so-called "Jewish," period, Bloch takes up specific Jewish subject matter (although not musical matter) and writes the one work by which he is still remembered: Schelomo , a rhapsody for cello and orchestra based on the figure of Solomon and the book of Ecclesiastes. During this time, he also produces psalm settings for tenor and orchestra, the

FAQ Composers Ernest Bloch Born: Died: The creator of music of great spiritual expression, Ernest Bloch was born on 24 July 1880 in Geneva, Switzerland. In his native city, he studied violin with Louis Rey and composition with Emile Jaques-Dalcroze and later studied under Eugene Ysaye and Francois Rasse in Brussels. Bloch's principal training, however, would be in Frankfurt with Iwan Knorr, who most influenced the composer's distinct musical personality. Bloch appropriated established and novel musical elements into highly dramatic scores, often influenced by philosophical, poetic, or religious themes. A masterly composer of music for strings, Bloch wrote four string quartets, SchelomoA Hebrew Rhapsody (for cello and orchestra), and A Voice in the Wilderness (for orchestra and cello obbligato), which are deeply emotional works and rank among the most distinguished achievements in the neo-classic and neo-romantic idiom of early 20th-century music. Bloch's pupil Roger Sessions praised him for his special ability to express "the grandeur of human suffering." The successful premiere by the Boston Symphony of Bloch's Trois Poemes Juifs in 1917 encouraged the composer to settle in the United States. He soon assumed the directorship of the Cleveland Institute of Music and later the San Francisco Conservatory of Music. He also taught at the University of California at Berkeley.

B BLOCH, ERNEST BIOGRAPHY Ernest Bloch was one of the most interesting, inventive and successful composers, recognised and appreciated during his lifetime as a successor to Bach Beethoven , and Brahms . While these three giants developed and established their own definite style within their own respective historical period, Bloch was unique. He was a wanderer and explorer, caring nothing for the fashions of the time. He possessed the supreme qualities of a great creator in each of the varied styles in which he wrote throughout his whole life. Ernest Bloch was born in Switzerland and later took out American citizenship, serving as director of the Cleveland Institute from 1920 to 1925 and later of the San Francisco Conservatory.

Ernest Bloch Legacy Home 2009: 50th Anniversary Bio Introduction Connections ... NEXDIR Welcome The Ernest Bloch Legacy Project is devoted to preserving the legacy of composer, humanist, and philosopher, Ernest Bloch. Selected Quote: (see more at "Quoted!" tab) From David Z. Kushner's The Ernest Bloch Companion , Greenwood Press, 2002, pages 1-10. Ernest Bloch's is a name with which to reckon in reviewing the ebb and flow of twentieth-century music. It is a name whose bearer was often removed, physically and musically, from the primary tributaries of the artistic currents of the age. An admirer of the visionary poet Walt Whitman, Bloch adopted as his theme of life that wordsmith's line "Give me solitude, give me Nature." A seeker after those dual attributes, Truth and Beauty, Bloch was uncompromising in holding fast to the tenets of art and life he believed to be inviolable. Ernest Bloch holds a unique place in the history of twentieth-century art music. He was a public figure for much of his life, particularly during his years in New York, Cleveland, and San Francisco, but he was not a public person, at least not in the traditional sense of that term. He held fast to the traditions of the past, particularly those upon which he was nurtured. His love of Renaissance choral music, for example, brought him comfort and solace, poignantly so during his final days of life. The music of Ernest Bloch is, above all else, sincere. It would be grossly naïve to label it "Jewish" or nationalistic; it is, rather, humanistic. As a result, it delivers a universal message. History, the final arbiter in all aspects of the human enterprise, will, in all likelihood, reserve for Ernest Bloch a place of honor in the pantheon of the musical elite of the twentieth century.

I would have had the correct nationality, of course, but the wrong man. My answer also would have revealed my limited musical background. Dr. David Z. Kushner, professor and head of the musicology/music history at the University of Florida, enlightened me, November 25, when he presented a lecture with musical accompaniment to about two dozen music lovers at United Hebrew Congregation in Joplin. Dr. David Z. Kushner lectures to a group assembled at the United Hebrew Congregation in Joplin. Holding a Ph.D. from the University of Michigan, Kushner published The Ernest Bloch Companion in 2002. He is the father of Jeremy Kushner, a professor of music at Missouri Southern State University. The Jewish Works of Ernest Bloch is Kushner's favorite musical subject and for which he is considered today's foremost specialist. Through a concise discussion, integrating the composer's life and workshow Bloch treats the influence of religion in his creative effortsKushner encourages a rethinking of Bloch's place in the history of twentieth century music.
