L'dor v'dor
Nova Linea Musica proudly presents L’dor v’dor —“from generation to generation”—a moving tribute to the legacy and evolution of Jewish-American composers. Soprano Arianna Zukerman, mezzo-soprano Heather Johnson, and pianist Jason Wirth come together for an evening of vocal works that reflect cultural memory, resilience, and artistic innovation. The cornerstone of the program is Ki Ger Anokhi Imakh, an NLM commissioned world premiere by David Hanlon. Using text from Psalm 39:13-14, the piece was inspired by connections between Hanlon's grandparents who fled Austria in 1939 and the refugees of today. In the composer’s own words, “Psalm 39 draws on the Jewish tradition of seeing the stranger in ourselves... We are obliged to empathize with the Stranger, not only because our ancestors were the Stranger, but because we are all visitors passing through the land of the living.” The program also features music by Leonard Bernstein, Laura Kaminsky, Ricky Ian Gordon, Laura Karpman, David Leisner, and Alex Weiser.
Like all NLM concerts, L’dor v’dor will begin at 6:30 p.m., enhanced with a pre-concert panel discussion at 5:45 p.m. and a catered post-concert reception where audiences can mingle with artists. Single tickets are $40 (with a limited number of discounted student tickets available) and include access to both the pre- and post-concert events. Tickets are now available at novalineamusica.org.
