Author 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.

Mostly introspective and direct in its appeal..." -- Brian Schuth, The Boston Musical Intelligencer * Manufacturer ID: 114-41716 * Format: Set of Parts * Instrumentation: Cello, Piano, Violin, Clarinet
