![Bloch/ Bruch: Schelomo/ Nidrei [Natalie Clein/ BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra / Ilan Volkov] [Hyperion A67910]](https://images.bolo.qa/I/81J-0qt8epL._AC_SL1200_.jpg)
Description:
A dazzling orchestral disc of music from the Jewish tradition of the late-nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries. Bruchs Kol Nidrei is one of the most well-loved works in the cello repertoire. The descending opening phrase of the cello line is instantly recognizable: a universal, extraordinarily expressive utterance. The main part of the disc comprises the works for cello and orchestra by Ernest Bloch, all part of his Jewish cycle. The most famous is Schelomo, a work inspired by passages from Ecclesiastes, where the cello, playing a deeply lyric and speaking line of prodigious technical difficulty, can be seen as the incarnation of King Solomon, as Bloch himself wrote. The other large-scale work for cello and orchestra, Voice in the Wilderness, is of a darker hue. Both works reveal a composer whose works should be firmly in the canon of twentieth-century symphonic writing. The cellist here is Natalie Clein, a celebrated figure in British musical life since winning BBC Young Musician of the Year in 1995 and now a formidable artist, possessed of great musical, technical and intellectual gifts.
Review
"A lovely performance, with Clein bringing out the different colour of each of the to cello's strings and the orchestra effecting most beautifully the transition from sombre to heavenly." --Gramophone, Sept'12
"It's one of the most persuasive performances of this work (Bloch) that I have heard. An outstanding release." --IRR OUTSTANDING --IRR, July/ Aug'12
"Schelomo, Bloch's Rhapsodie Hébraïque, is still the best-known work by the Swiss-born American composer (1880-1959). It appears to have fallen out of fashion, so Natalie Clein's inspired collection of his three cello works on Jewish themes the others the later symphonic poem with cello obbligato, Voice in the Wilderness, and the usually piano-accompanied From Jewish Life, in a charming arrangement for strings and harp by Christopher Palmer with Bruch's Kol Nidrei (1881), is rare and welcome. Her impassioned, sensitive playing finds willing collaborators in the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra and their former principal conductor." ----Guardian, 15/07/12
"Natalie Clein is the cello protagonist in all four works, her range of tonal colour, her animation and her discreet soulfulness proving to be ideal qualities." ------**** Telegraph 27/07/12
"Clein delivers a powerfuly committed performance." --Performance. ****(*) Recording ***** --BBC Music Magazine. Sept'12
"Written against a background of growing 20th-century antisemitism, Ernest Bloch's music is deeply rooted in Jewish tradition and spirituality. Natalie Clein, in a sleeve note for her new recording of three of his cello works with Ilan Volkov and the BBC Scottish Symphony, says his output "was deeply affected by the early 20th-century yearning for a sense of identity" and expresses "a deep sense of longing and loneliness". She and Volkov give a performance of Schelomo (1916) that is very moving, both in its profound sensuality and in the pervasive sense of transience that gnaws at its vision of worldly glory. They bring the same commitment to From Jewish Life (1924) and Voice in the Wilderness (1936), though their episodic nature leads to an inevitable lessening of intensity. The other knockout is Bruch's Kol Nidrei (1881), in which the solo cello acts as a synagogue cantor to the orchestra's chanted responses. Beautifully done, it brings the disc to a reflective close. Highly recommended. ----***** --Guardian, 09/08/12 Sept'12
