The Chagall Windows (1974)

Besetzung: Orchester

Verlag: Novello

Bemerkung: Angeregt durch die Glasfenster von Marc Chagall in der Synagoge des Hadasseh-Hebrew University Medical Centres, Jerusalem. John Mac Cabe (1974): The twelve windows (which for me are masterpieces of visual art) depict the twelve sons of the patriarch Jacob, and thus the Twelve Tribes of Israel, and they pursue a chronological course from the first-born Reuben, to the youngest, Benjamin. In my music I have adopted a similar form, and certain details in the score are directly related to pictorial details in the windows. https://www.wisemusicclassical.com/work/7772/The-Chagall-Windows--John-McCabe/.
