About the Program
The power of memory, music, and justice bring us together with the Chamber Project of St. Louis, where they present a concert of music spanning generations of tradition and innovation. In the first half, they honor two composers murdered during the Holocaust and explore a new work from a young composer processing recent events inextricably linked to the past. Following intermission, they will explore the Museum’s special exhibit, “The Artist Who Captured Eichmann” through the music of Argentinian-born composer Olvaldo Golijov. The concert closes with beloved old tunes from the classical and klezmer repertoire.
