Book description

Ernest Bloch left his native Switzerland to settle in the United States in 1916. One of the great twentieth-century composers, he was influenced by a range of genres and styles - Jewish, American and Swiss - and his works reflect his lifelong struggle with his identity. Drawing on firsthand recollections of relatives and others who knew and worked with the composer, this collection is the most comprehensive study to date of Bloch's life, musical achievement and reception. Contributors present the latest research on Bloch's works and compositional practice, including studies of his Avodath Hakodesh (Sacred Service), violin pieces such as Nigun, the symphonic Schelomo, and the opera Macbeth. Setting the quality and significance of Bloch's output in its historical and cultural contexts, this book provides scholarly analyses as well as a full chronology, list of online resources, catalogue of published and unpublished works, and selected further reading.

Select Bibliography

Compiled by Alexander Knapp

Although there are relatively few books (or chapters within books) devoted exclusively to the life and works of Ernest Bloch, dozens of Master’s dissertations and Doctoral theses have been written by university and conservatoire students, primarily in the United States and in Western Europe. Furthermore, hundreds of sets of programme notes and liner notes and thousands of articles have been published in journals, magazines, newspapers, recordings, etc., over the past hundred years. It would be impossible to include them all here. Therefore, in addition to incorporating all the works referred to in this book, emphasis has been placed upon listing further relevant writings by all the authors whose contributions form the substance of this volume.

Among the most comprehensive bibliographies on Bloch are the following:

Griffel, M. (1968) ‘Bibliography of Writings on Ernest Bloch’, Current Musicology, 6 (Spring), 142–6: 68 items.
Kushner, D. Z. (1988) Ernest Bloch: A Guide to Research (New York and London: Garland Publishing). After a short preface and a brief biography, Kushner’s Guide comprises 579 publications (covering nearly 200 pages), with a brief description of the content of each item. The latter part of the book consists of catalogues of unpublished and published works, and a discography; lists of archives, repositories, festivals, retrospectives, programme notes, awards and honours received by Bloch; and commentaries on the Ernest Bloch Award Competition and the Ernest Bloch Professorship (University of California at Berkeley). A series of eleven photographs is followed by an author index, index of proper names, index of compositions, and a subject index.
Kushner, D. Z. The Ernest Bloch Companion (Westport, CT and London: Greenwood Press, 2002). Near the end of this book, Kushner provides a more up-to-date eleven-page bibliography, divided into the following categories: pamphlets, book chapters and articles by Ernest Bloch; programme notes by Bloch; books, dissertations, theses, booklets, pamphlets and catalogues by other authors; articles and reviews.
Lewinski, J. and Dijon, E. (1998–2005) Ernest Bloch: Sa vie et sa pensée, 4 vols. (Geneva: Editions Slatkine). Near the end of Volume 4 of this remarkable four-volume anthology of correspondence and other documentation, extending to over 3500 pages, there is a 23-page Bibliographie Générale which begins with a short introduction and continues with entries under the following categories: theses and treatises, books and pamphlets, articles in weekly reviews, in the Ernest Bloch Society Bulletin, and in daily newspapers. The section that follows the general bibliography is entitled Catalogue Générale des Oeuvres Publiées avec Bibliographie Selective, in which a specialised list of publications pertaining to each of Bloch’s published compositions is presented immediately after information concerning date of composition, location of manuscript, dedicatee, description of work, duration, first performances, press reviews, etc.
Móricz, K. (2008) Jewish Identities: Nationalism, Racism, and Utopianism in Twentieth-Century Music (Berkeley, Los Angeles and London: University of California Press). Móricz’s fifteen-page bibliography is presented in strictly alphabetical order of author, and covers the music of the Society for Jewish Folk Music and Schoenberg, as well as that of Bloch.
