Also, Charles Davidson wrote a cantata in memory of Rabin (which I
performed in the premiere in ISrael) and I understand he will soon
premiere a new work in honor of Israel's 50 years. Call him at
215-635-6611 to order these.
The song you may have heard about is Shir L'Shalom by Yair Rosenblum
(actually written about 25 years ago) which has taken strong connections
with Rabin's death. A fine new choral arrangement of it is available
from Transcontinental Music in NY by Michael Isaacson.
