The work Strings - Bow & Arrow, commissioned and dedicated to Keshet Eilon, was inspired by the brilliant, vibrant sound produced by this talented group of virtuoso string-players. The wild melodic contours, surprising dynamic fluctuations and extreme changes in texture, combine to create the Body of this work: In a perpetual attacca, all are swept up as in a ritual-like dance, with the tone-colour of the Arabic drums marking the way as they lead into the Presto. The melodic basis originates in fragments of Indian ragas which I embedded in my own rhythmic world. (Tsippi Fleischer, June 1995).
