...points firmly away from Bach cannot escape him. He is too deeply embedded in the curriculum of music conservatories, and he towers too imposingly as an unrivaled craftsman. Polish Composer Krzysztof Penderecki, 35, acknowledges the continuity between Bach and his own St. Luke Passion (1966) by spelling out the master's name in a recurring cantus firmus: B flat, A, C, H (the German notation for B natural).

Running the edge of the even ocean is the boat of the poems -- "our soul...a three master seeking port." An old-fashioned wire grave fence spans the dark sky. Behind the fence hover five "characters" -- anonymous creatures. They are placed like a line-up of black sheep to carry us into the dream-vision of the book.
