Concert: Portraits and Remembrance<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Three psalms for string orchestra<\/em><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Thursday, January 27th, 8 P.M.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dor\u0107ol platz 19h, Dobra\u010dina 59b<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Portraits and memories represent one of the basic program elements of Rossi Fest. The World Holocaust Remembrance Day, on January 27, will be marked this year with the composition Three Psalms for String Orchestra<\/em>\u00a0by the modern composer David Cesky. In addition to the Jewish Chamber Orchestra conducted by Radan Jovanovi\u0107, ballet soloists Tamara Pjevi\u0107 and Jak\u0161a Filipovac will perform, directed by Ana Grigorovi\u0107.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Composer David Chesky unveils his most elaborate and moving work to date on Three Psalms for String Orchestra, a contemplative but ultimately uplifting work which details an unfolding inward journey.\u00a0 Three Psalms carries the listener from spiritual crisis and resignation to re-construction and, finally, an embrace of the universal. The work\u2019s ethereal sweep slowly builds as its expressive climax is captured with the highest level of detail, intimacy, and accuracy possible. Three Psalms is a rewarding and emotionally profound listening experience that will delight lovers of modern music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The theme Portraits and memories refer to memories of suffering during the Second World War, and composers have the opportunity to contribute to world cultural heritage in the field of preserving the memory of the victims of the Holocaust, but also honoring those who opposed it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This concept aims to raise awareness of the necessity of promoting education, research, remembrance, and talk about the Holocaust at the highest artistic level by engaging young, talented artists of the most diverse profiles and nationalities, and in this segment, Rossi Fest particularly deepens one of its basic goals, which is in the development of the spirit of tolerance, mutual respect and trust.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
