    Heinrich Schütz

    The Israeli Vocal Ensemble
    Musicians:
    Aviad Stier – Organ
    Ophira Zakai – Theorbo
    Tal Arbel – Viola da gamba
    Conductor: Yuval Weinberg (Israel–Germany) \ Yuval Ben Ozer
     
    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.

    Verdi: Requiem

    For four soloists, choir, and instrumental ensemble (arrangement: Michael Betzner-Brandt)

    The Israeli Vocal Ensemble
    Soloists:
    Alla Vasilevitsky – Soprano
    Nitzan Alon – Alto
    Ron Silberstein – Tenor
    Alexei Kanunikov – Bass
    Musicians:
    Hagai Shalom, horn
    Erez Meyuhas, double bass
    Pazit Gal, piano

    Conductor: Yuval Benozer

    The chamber arrangement by German conductor Michael Betzner-Brandt of Verdi’s dramatic operatic Requiem places the voices at center stage, casting a fresh light on this beloved masterpiece. Like many symphonic works that have been adapted for smaller ensembles (e.g., Fauré’s Requiem, Honegger’s King David), this version offers listeners the chance to focus on the choir’s beautiful musical roles and those of the four soloists—without losing the drama.
