"Hexaptychon"
is made up of six pieces (different orchestrations
of the same melodic theme). The six pieces are linked
to a line composed to the words of the Arab poet
Jabra Ibrahim Jabra. The beginning of each piece
is presented in the short film.
The work was performed in full at the event celebrating
the Prize for Lifetime Achievement at the Felicia
Blumental Center, Tel Aviv.
