Birkat Haderekh – Blessing for the Road IIfor B( Clarinet, Alto Saxophone, Violin, Cello, Percussion, and PianoIn celebration of its 75th anniversary season, the Tanglewood Music Center commissioned a mixed quartet from Shulamit Ran, resulting in this work’s original 2015 scoring for B-Flat Clarinet, Violin, Cello, and Piano. BIRKAT HADEREKH (in either scoring) may be heard as a “prayer without words” in which the saxophone and clarinet figure most prominently in cantillation-inspiredcadenzas that frame the work and dramatically emerge throughout. The present sextet scoring was created in 2016 for Latitude 49’s world premiere at the Ear Taxi Festival in Chicago.
