Bestiarius (1995) by Lior Navok is an 11-minute work for alto or mezzo-soprano and ensemble, setting three humorous and imaginative 'animal' poems by Dan Pagis. Inspired by medieval bestiaries—books depicting real and mythical creatures—the piece contrasts the playful text with bold, colorful musical writing. Scored for flute/piccolo, clarinet, bassoon, violin, two percussionists, and harpsichord, it offers performers a vivid and inventive addition to the modern Hebrew vocal chamber repertoire.
