Short compositions for orchestra. The kind of improv setting that often resembles modern chamber music, particularly due to the empahsis on strings. Traditional Jewish scales pop up (5,7) but the more dominating sound are microtones -- that is, violins/cellos played in screechy, other-worldly scales.

In the past, Tsahar has used the orchestra in a more free-form setting. These pieces show off the composed elements much more (5) although they do let the musicisians spin into untethered improv (6,11).
