In memory of Robert Stern, Sanford Sylvan, and Don Wilkinson

In a time of broken covenants, we revisit an American oratorio based on the ram’s horn of Jewish liturgy, whose calls ring with our fear of being shattered, our hope of being whole. Join us as we remember old friends with music of extraordinary beauty on poems by George Herbert and Friedrich Schiller.
