A Gorgeous Brahms Requiem

DateWednesday, July 26, 2023 at 7:18PM

A beautiful evening last Friday in Chicago's Millennium Park. Carlos Kalmar brilliantly paired Joel Thompson’s Seven Last Words of the Unarmed with the Brahms Requiem. Gorgeous singing! Many of the violinists played instruments from Violins of Hope, instruments once owned by Jewish musicians before and during the Holocaust.  My last of the summer's symphony concerts with chorus.  It has gone so quickly!
