   His earliest works incorporated traditional Jewish tunes as sung by his father, who was the son of Meyer Bloch, president of the Jewish community of Lengnau (in the Swiss Canton of Aargau). After composing many of his major Jewish-inspired works, including Schelomo (1916), he moved permanently to the United States, founded the Cleveland Institute of Music (1920), and later became director of the San Francisco Conservatory (1925).
