From the duo of violinist Lorenza Ponce (Imago, Mystic Fiddler) and pianist Ben Zebelman (Kol Nidre Variations, Suite Noah's Ark), Song Of Songs is a uniquely powerful interpretation of one of Western culture's formative works - the biblical love poem Song of Songs, also known as the Song of Solomon.
Based on a new translation of the text, Song Of Songs alternates the spoken sections with musical interludes composed by Ponce and Zebelman for a uniquely powerful result.
| Beautiful music, weak readings | 2010-04-15 | 5 / 5 |

Beautiful composition & recording. Joy, Fear, Awe, & Trembling, not in the least "sappy."
The text is wonderful - go out and buy Chana & Ariel Bloch's translation - but the readings are over the top, they really turned me off. I just burned a disc without the text interludes, hope to choreograph something to this someday. |

Song of Songs is beautiful, romantic, and moving. The combination of compelling music and meaningful narration makes for an incredible experience. Highly recommended! |
