For 5 voices and orchestra-This symphony from Bloch's 'Jewish Period' evokes two Jewish traditional celebrations 'Yom Kippur' (Day of Atonement) and 'Succoth' (Celebration of Harvest). It does this not by using traditional Jewish melodies or musicalfeatures; but explores Judaism spiritually. Bloch himself provided notes for the New York Philarmonic 1943 performance of the symphony: 'Though a single unit the symphony falls into three sections. A slow introduction Adagio molto ('Prayer in the Desert') is immediately followed by the Allegro agitato ('Yom Kippur') with a main theme of bold barbaric character...A short transition leads into the second part Moderato ('Succoth')which after a fierce climax brings in the voice...This second part of the work is more contemplative serene a kind of prayer.' This is the Schirmer edition of the full score.

Chatzkele is a work based on two traditional Jewish melodies Oifn Pripetchik and Chatzkele. The first expresses a sentiment of deep sadness and nostalgia reminding the listener of the suffering that the Jewish people have undergone over the centuries. The second melody illustrates the unshakeable optimism which drives the Jewish community despite all terrible forms of intolerance it has endured. A wonderful cultural work which your audiences young and old will enjoy for many years to come.
