Featuring Yotam Haber's Estro Poetico-armonico III, this program is one of newEar's most ambitious concerts in years. The central theme in Yotam's Poetico-armonico series is a musical dialogue with the past. A centuries long game of telephone of Jewish music and customs. Performing this epic work is made possible with support by the Azrieli Foundation. The work is paired with music from some of the most engaging Canadian and Jewish composers of our time.
