Music of Remembrance will conclude this season’s free Sparks of Glory concert series with a performance at 7 p.m. Friday, April 25 at Grace Church.

Music of Remembrance fills a unique cultural role in Seattle and throughout the world by remembering Holocaust musicians and their art through musical performances, educational programs, musical recordings and commissions of new works.

The concert will include works by Lori Laitman, Gideon Klein, David Beigelman and Jake Heggie. Performers include Megan Chenovick, soprano; Julia Benzinger, mezzo-soprano; and Jonathan Green, double bass. The program is presented as part of the Sparks of Glory series of concerts with commentary.

The series is made possible, in part, by a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts. Thanks to donors and the NEA, this series is presented free to the public.
