This story is also one of the books in the Bible, in the Old Testament. While artistic and historical licence has been taken, I believe that this musical is true to the essence, values and integrity of a story that is part of the religious tradition of millions of people worldwide.The musical has been written for a small orchestra with a difficulty grade of 3, making it perfectly accessible to collegiate symphonic ensembles. Lyrics in English and French are available.The opening piece (first of 16) named Une dernière fois (One last time) has a duration of 06:40. It starts with an instrumental introduction foreseen to be played before the rise of the curtain. The opening scene is the burial of Ruth's husband, which explains the Larghetto doloroso mood of the piece, and the mournful lyrics sung by Naomi. It ends with the hope of a new start in Bethlehem.
