Come and be a part of
the Second Songs of Life Choral - Orchestral Festival
Join the 2010-2011 Songs of Life International Festival for
The World Premiere of A Melancholy Beauty, an Oratorio depicting the heroic
rescue of the Jews of Bulgaria during World War II.
This original work by Composer Charles David Osborne and Librettist Aryeh Finklestein
will be performed Dec.
27, 2010 – Jan. 7, 2011 in Bulgaria and Israel. The international music festival features conductors Dr. Joshua Jacobson and Professor Henry Leck and brings together
singers and instrumentalists from the United States, Canada, Europe and Israel to tell this inspiring story.
Thousands participated in the
The First Songs of Life Festival in 2008, which commemorated the 65th anniversary of the rescue of the Bulgarian Jews during the Holocaust. Through Ernest Bloch’s choral-orchestral masterpiece, “Sacred Service,” the celebration of thanksgiving sought to transcend cultural and religions lines. |
