The scales and harmony of movement 2 are based on several modes. In order to give the music a feeling of authenticity, the composer researched the scales that Jewish people have used in the distant past. Present day cantors use scales that are centuries, probably millennia old. Two of these, the Ukrainian Dorian and the Magein Avot (along with the Mixolydian and Phrygian modes) form the harmonic vocabulary for Movement 2.
Ruths story is dramatic and a good vehicle for a tone poem. The first movement summarizes Ruths story of coming to faith and her loyalty and kindness to Naomi. The second movement dramatizes Ruths devotion to Naomi and the love story of Ruth and Boaz that results from it.
It was Boaz who first voiced the metaphor of a mother bird protecting her baby birds under her wings and how God does that for us. Boaz great-grandson, King David, used this imagery in 5 of his Psalms.
