Description
Shulamit Ran's delicately tinted chamber work Birkat Haderekh...glowed with a sense of gentle but firm supplication, its title rendered from the Hebrew as "Blessing for the Road." -- Jeremy Eichler, The Boston Globe. ...Birkat Haderekh...is a wandering meditation on melody written for the Quartet for the End of Time ensemble: clarinet, violin, cello, piano. Cast in a single movement less than 10 minutes long, the work develops and deepens ideas introduced in a wistful opening clarinet line. Mostly introspective and direct in its appeal..." -- Brian Schuth, The Boston Musical Intelligencer
