Description
The powerful Triumph of the Spirit by Canada’s Srul Irving Glick headlines this concert. It is a five-movement song cycle drawing from biblical and modern texts whose uplifting message is hope and thanksgiving for the life we are given. Also featured is a group of enthralling shorter works drawn from the Jewish tradition by contemporary composers as well as the late Renaissance composer Saloman Rossi.
The concert closes with Leonard Bernstein’s mesmerizing Chichester Psalms, an ode to joyful music entwined with contemplative imagery of devotion and reliance on a Creator and the pleasantness of shared community.
