Schelomo is a composition for cello an orchestra written by Ernest Bloch. This Rhapsodie hébraïque pour violoncelle et grand orchestre was completed during Bloch's "Jewish Cycle," which lasted from 1912–1926. Bloch claimed that he wrote music as an expression of emotion that he felt resulted from his Jewish heritage, not specifically Jewish melodies. Controversy remains over Bloch’s label as a "Jewish composer". Bloch wrote, "It was this entire Jewish heritage that moved me deeply, and was reborn in my music. To what extent it is Jewish, to what extent it is just Ernest Bloch, of that I know nothing. The future alone will decide." Schelomo was written around 1916.
