By noted young American opera composer Jake Heggie and librettist Gene Scheer, the work juxtaposes the exuberant freedom of pre-World War II Berlin with the brutal Nazi horrors that followed, while making an eloquent, poignant plea for remembrance. Seattle Symphony's Gerard Schwarz penned 'In Memoriam', a beautifully meditative, elegiac piece for cello and string quartet, in honor of cellist David Tonkonogui (1958-2003). From acclaimed American art song composer Lori Laitman comes 'The Seed of Dream', a powerful song cycle based on five poems written by Abraham Sutzkever during his imprisonment in the Vilna Ghetto. The lyrical intensity of these poems bears witness to the transcendent power of art in resistance to the forces of cruelty.\u003cp\u003eFor a Look or a Touch: Prelude, Do you remember? - Jake Heggie\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor a Look or a Touch: no 1, The Voice - Jake Heggie \/ Gerard Schwarz\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor a Look or a Touch: no 2, Golden Years - Jake Heggie \/ Lori Laitman\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor a Look or a Touch: no 3, The Story of Joe - Jake Heggie\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor a Look or a Touch: no 4, Silence - Jake Heggie\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor a Look or a Touch: no 5, Der Singende Wald 'The Singing Forest' - Jake Heggie\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor a Look or a Touch: no 6, Remember - Jake Heggie\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn Memoriam - Gerard Schwarz\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Seed of Dream: I lie in this coffin - Lori Laitman\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Seed of Dream: A load of shoes - Lori Laitman\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Seed of Dream: To my child - Lori Laitman\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Seed of Dream: Beneath the whiteness of your stars - Lori Laitman\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Seed of Dream: No sad songs please - Lori Laitman\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chalkys.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55133616406913,"sku":"1113640","price":11.98,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0056\/8043\/1219\/files\/51fhLKTZ-zL._SL1500.jpg?v=1767068723","url":"https:\/\/chalkys.com\/products\/1113640","provider":"Chalkys.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
