Hebrew Melodies

Beschreibung

Admirably performed by Sarah Iancu (cello) and David Bismuth (piano), this CD gathers 30 melodies inspired by liturgical, hassidic, yiddish and ladino themes : from the well-known Kaddish by Ravel to Max Bruch’s Kol Nidrei and from Ernest Bloch’s cycle From the Jewish Life to Hebraic Popular Songs by Darius Milhaud. It also includes less known pieces, but nonetheless very pleasant, by Joseph Achron, Léon Algazi, Charles-Valentin Alkan, Fernand Halphen, Simon Laks, Joaquin Nin-Culmell, Dimitri Chostakovitch, Joachim Stutschewsky or Viktor Ullmann
