I will say goodbye today with a special page of music's history, Arthur Grumiaux’s magnificent interpretation of Ernest Bloch’s Baal Shem, the second movement, Nigun. (Nobody seems to know who the pianist is, only that the recording is from the 1970s.)

He really makes it feel like a prayer.
As a side note, Yehudi Menuhin, who knew Bloch since childhood, described him as “a musician like an Old Testament prophet, with a divine fire that could scorch the bystander".
And with this, I wish you all a great evening!
