Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of California, Berkeley, 1999.

The concept of Jewish art music appeared in Russia in the last decades of the nineteenth-century. It was influenced by modernist notions of purity and had strong political overtones, reflecting the clash between Eastern and Western European concepts of Judaism, Yiddish and Hebrew cultures, Socialist and Zionist political orientations.

520 $a The concept of Jewish art music appeared in Russia in the last decades of the nineteenth-century. It was influenced by modernist notions of purity and had strong political overtones, reflecting the clash between Eastern and Western European concepts of Judaism, Yiddish and Hebrew cultures, Socialist and Zionist political orientations.
520 $a The belief in the racial genius of different nations and the conviction that universality could be attained only through this racial singularity was deeply rooted in European thought and served as the background of Ernest Bloch's "racially conscious" musical art. The assimilated Bloch believed that by claiming to express his long-forgotten racial heritage he could gain status in mainstream Western-music circles. Indeed, after his 1916 emigration to the United States he succeeded in establishing himself as the "greatest Jewish composer." The transition between the racially particular and universal was not, however, easily attainable and Bloch remained trapped in his self-created image of Judaism. After his first attempt to create a purified Judaism in his unfinished opera "Jezebel" he yielded to the stereotypical representation of Jews in his "Jewish cycles."
520 $a Arnold Schoenberg's German identity was so strong and his aesthetics so thoroughly Germanified that even after he fled Germany in 1933 he could not abandon his Teutonic stance. He gave up composition and set about transforming his creative energies into Jewish political propaganda. In his writings from this time he envisioned a utopian Jewish state, which he modelled on totalitarian Germany. His late works with Jewish subjects bear witness to his political ideals. The unified and centralized political system he imagined also reflected his aesthetic convictions.
520 $a The unreconcilable professional and aesthetic differences between the Russian-Jewish nationalists, the post-Romantic Bloch and the modernist Schoenberg did not prevent the propagators of Jewish music from creating a continuous narrative that included them all as representatives of Jewishness. This approach showed the strength of the belief in the existence of an essentially Jewish musical idiom. Ironically, this belief served equally both anti-Semitic and nationalistic Jewish music critics. By exploring the contradictions in this story I question the tenability of such an essentialist view of music by Jewish composers.
