About This Program​
Dreams & Prayers is an evocative experience that explores the depths of human emotion and transcendence. Grażyna Bacewicz’s electrifying Concerto for String Orchestra is a bold work that showcases the fierce intensity and lyrical soul of the string ensemble. A journey through mystery, memory, and spiritual longing, Osvaldo Golijov’s Dreams and Prayers of Isaac the Blind is acoustically incomparable. Fusing Klezmer, classical, and mysticism, this work weaves together centuries of Jewish tradition and the imagined visions of a 13th-century mystic. Pairing the ancient and modern, this program invites you to listen with your heart and dream with your eyes open.
