YEARNING is a Concert-Performance of new ethnic music, fusing the spiritual power
of Eastern European Jewish Music with the sublime melodies and rhythms of Oriental
Art Music. Prayer-song and outstanding contemporary vocal art tell the story
of the play of light and shadow and the pulse of creation and destruction
that we call reality. Through the emotion of YEARNING the performance
lifts an urgent prayer for the conservation of life on our planet and the
Oneness of Humanity. Three acclaimed international artists combine to create this work.
