Fama Bloch intulit opera scripta ex antiquis melodiis Hebraeorum. Causas non enucleavit Iudaeorum popularium musicorum, sed solum in compositionibus antiquis orientis, hebraicis fundamentis innixus est, optime in hodiernum sonum transferens figuras typicas melorum antiquorum et recentiorum iudaici (symphonia cum cantu "Israel", rhapsodia "Schelomo". " for cell and orchestra and etc.).

In scriptis veterum 40s. natura melodiae strictior et neutra fit, sapor nationalis in illis minus conspicitur (orchestrae, 2 et 3 quartets, quaedam instrumenta instrumenta). Bloch auctor est articulorum, quos possidet "Homo et Musica" ("Homo et Musica", in "MQ", 1933, n. 10;
