Music at Emanu-El: The Arcos Orchestra
Temple Emanu-El and The ARCOS ORCHESTRA have begun our inaugural season in Emanu-El's magnificent Fifth Avenue Sanctuary. Arcos is a chamber orchestra that offers a bridge between the origins of European music and today's most engaging musical works. Artistic Director and conductor John-Edward Kelly and Emanu-El's Cantor Lori Corrsin have worked closely to create concerts that reflect the Orchestra's mission to promote lesser-known works and the Temple's commitment to Jewish culture. Don't miss our next concert: Wednesday, December 8, 2010; "Festive Tones" ~ for Chanukah. Dr. Samuel Adler, composer, is arranging the Chanukah Candle Blessings and Rock of Ages for the Arcos Orchestra. We will light the candles on the Sanctuary Bima at 7 PM, singing these traditional Chanukah melodies together. The orchestra will then continue with the Handel selection form Judas Maccabeus. Music by G. F. Handel, Bela Bartok, Samuel Adler, Dmitri Terzakis (world premiere) and French-Jewish composer Nicolas Baari. No tickets are required admission is free. Join us for a pre-concert talk at 6:00 PM to hear extraordinary living composers speak about their music.
