Unity & Hope
Unity & Hope brings together a powerful work of music and meaning.
The program features Moses in Nederland by Michael Kropf, with violinist Sabrina Tabby. This concerto for violin soloist and orchestra is named for Kropf’s great-grandfather, Moses Schenkein, a European Jew living in Holland who was forced to lead his family on a dangerous and miraculous journey to escape the Holocaust. An amateur violinist and composer, Schenkein left behind a folder of short melodic works — including settings of Hebrew and Yiddish poetry, violin music, and a number of tangos. As both a composer and violinist, Kropf felt a deep kinship with his great-grandfather, and each movement of the concerto draws from one of these inherited melodies.
Performances are presented in partnership with Violins of Hope: Wisconsin, presented by Milwaukee Youth Symphony Orchestra.
Single tickets are $23.
