Ernest Bloch compuso en 1923 la obra Baal Shem: Three Pictures of Chassidic Life, que consta de tres movimientos que representan la imaginería jasídica, respectivamente Vidui, Nigun y Simchas Torah. El segundo movimiento se ha convertido en una pieza ampliamente conocida e incorporada al repertorio de los violinistas. Bloch asocia el nigun, interpretado por la voz humana, con el violín, colocándolo en el lugar del Cantor o del Rabino. El violín incorpora el carácter orante que caracteriza al nigun, incluso en el gesto, utilizando la música como vehículo de la materialidad a la trascendencia (devekut). A través del análisis expresivo, el presente ensayo pretende evidenciar las similitudes entre la composición de Nigun y el género musical homónimo, destacando el gesto musical y la libertad interpretativa, y despertar algunas reflexiones sobre el tema, sin la pretensión de presentar respuestas definitivas o concluyentes.
