Deeply expressive and instantly recognisable, Max Bruch’s Kol Nidrei, Op. 47 is one of the great lyrical works of the Romantic cello repertoire. Composed in 1880 for cello and orchestra, the work draws on two Jewish melodies, beginning with the traditional Kol Nidre melody associated with the evening service of Yom Kippur. The solo cello takes on an intensely vocal, cantorial character, demanding sustained tone, expressive phrasing and sensitive control of dynamics. This edition from International Music Company (IMC) presents the work for cello and piano, with the cello part edited by renowned cellist Leonard Rose.
