This inspiring evening will feature a carefully curated selection of pieces spanning different eras and styles, including Ukranian folk songs, a work of Baroque theatre by Sebastián Durón, Trumpet Songs by Jennifer Higdon, Six Year Interlude by Serbian American composer Nebojsa Macura, works by Josephine Lang arranged by Sharon and Harald Krebs, and more!
