          A ladder?

            No, that's the one - Jacob's dream was about a ladder to heaven, wasn't it?

              Coleslaw:

              Penderecki: The Dream of Jacob (aka The Awakening of Jacob), Paradise Lost and Threnody to the Victims of Hiroshima.

              Some may be interested in this (it's worth a patient look for the novelty):

                Really? There was me thinking that Jacob's Ladder was a butcher's joint (aka short ribs) mmmmm



                What Q links J S Bach: Art of Fugue, Schumann Das Paradies und die Peri, and Berlioz Te Deum, according to the librarian

                          Do librarians deal only in books?

                          Let's remember this is a Radio 3 forum - is there a library that's part of Radio 3?

                            This is an absolute mystery to me!

                            Jus' sayin'...
                            "...the isle is full of noises,
                            Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
                            Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
                            Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."
