Here's what AMP has to say about the program:

Come journey across eras, cultures and landscapes through the musical imaginations of our 2022 AMP Laureates with Elliott Forrest (WQXR) as your guide. The world-class Orchestra of St. Luke’s performs these three U.S. premieres, led by guest conductor Steven Mercurio, alongside internationally renowned soloists Sharon Azrieli, Sepideh Raissadat, Naomi Sato and Zhongxi Wu.

ABOUT THE WORKS

Iman Habibi’s Shāhīn-nāmeh for voice and orchestra is a striking new song cycle based on 14th-century texts by Judeo-Persian poet Shahin Shirazi. It was written for renowned Persian vocalist and setar player Sepideh Raissadat. Shāhīn-nāmeh reveals the close affinity that has historically existed between Persians and Jews dating back centuries.

Aharon Harlap gives us his Out of the depths have I cried unto Thee, O’ Lord, a setting of five psalms for soprano and orchestra. The work takes us on an emotional voyage, from a state of despair to one of hope and celebration, conveying an uplifting message for our times.

Rita Ueda’s new double concerto – Birds Calling… from the Canada in You for suona/sheng, shō and orchestra – incorporates Asian and Western musical influences with inspirations from the Canadian landscape, especially birdsongs collected from the country’s 450+ species. The work continues Ueda’s pursuit of a new transcultural musical identity by asking, ‘What does it mean to migrate and settle on land already rich in history?’

Groupmuse ticket buyers are instructed to pick up their tickets at will call prior to the performance's start time. Seating is assigned, so groups wishing to sit together should do so under a single reservation.
