REMEMBRANCE: MUSIC OF WAR, PEACE & COMFORT
September 22-23, 2018
In Remembrance: Music of War, Peace & Comfort, our selections comprised music and poetry inspired directly by wars from the 16th-20th centuries, featuring compositions by Clement Janequin, Heinrich Schütz, Felix Mendelssohn, Rudolf Mauersberger, Aaron Rosenthal, Joel Martinson, Stephen Chatman, Rene Clausen, and Jonathan Quick. Music of peace and comfort, the soothing balms for conflict and tragedy, celebrated with both reverence and joy the conviction that the human race responds with hope and renewal in the face of the unthinkable.
A portion of free-will donations was directed towards the VA Northeast Ohio Healthcare System, in honor of all service men and women past and present, and in particular, in the memory of Northeast Ohio’s fallen members of the military.
