This Love Between Us: Prayers for Unity

Our Resonance Chamber Orchestra and Chorus take center stage in February with two concert performances centered around Indian-American composer Reena Esmail’s 2016 work This Love Between Us: Prayers for Unity and Bach’s glorious Magnificat. 

One of the most exciting voices in music today, Esmail works between the worlds of Hindustani and Western classical music traditions, aiming to bring communities together through the creation of equitable musical spaces.  This Love Between Us reflects on the themes of unity and kindness, juxtaposing texts from seven different religious traditions (and in seven different languages!)

Building on the success of our “remarkable” (onStage Pittsburgh) Mass in B Minor last season, Bach’s sparkling Magnificat anchors the first half of the program along with Breaking Bread, a solo work by American composer Nkeiru Okoye, which serves as a kind of invocation for the mesmerizing sonic journey to come.
