Mussorgsky/Ravel          Pictures at an Exhibition

Celebrated cellist Zuill Bailey performs Max Bruch’s Kol Nidrei, variations on two themes of Jewish origin, and Ernest Bloch’s Schelomo, the final work of this composer’s Jewish Cycle. Mussorgsky’s wondrous and colorful Pictures at an Exhibition depicts an imaginary tour of an art gallery.

Bailey’s “sound is rich, like dark chocolate,” writes Voices magazine. “His voice is distinctive – strong and direct. Bailey reaches from the soul of his instrument to our own.”
