For the third consecutive year, Yuval Weinberg—conductor and musical director of the Stuttgart Radio Choir and the Eurochoir—leads* the Ensemble in this unique program. At its heart: Musikalische Exequien (1636), the exquisite funeral composition by Heinrich Schütz, one of the greatest early Baroque German composers. Also featured: Warum ist das Licht gegeben dem Mühseligen by Johannes Brahms and Voluntas tua by contemporary Bulgarian composer Georgi Stoyanov. Though composed in vastly different eras, these three works highlight the human spirit and the timeless question: How can we accept the unacceptable? This is the power of choral music—fusing profound text with soul-stirring sound.
*In Raanana, the conductor will be Yuval Ben Ozer.
