Embark on a musical voyage and travel back to the beginning. From the primal “summons from space” (John Tavener) and the “creation of the world” (Olivier Messiaen), to Jewish prayers (“Kaddisch” by Maurice Ravel), then to the lamentations of all Mankind (“Flow My Tears,” the 16th-century original by John Dowland from, performed on authentic instruments, then re-envisaged by Benjamin Britten). From there you will be taken on a final pilgrimage to the most holy places (Brahms-Haydn) and achieve Apotheosis with the most daring work on their program: “The Fantasia on the theme of Tallis,” by Vaughan Williams (you will hear the original 16th-century theme by Thomas Tallis played on viola da gambas). Hear the echoes from the past meet the present!

Come and experience the music of the great composers and perhaps you will come away with some answers about yourself!
