A concert honoring the victims of the massacre at the Tree of Life Synagogue

This program features music written by Jewish composers as well as music that expresses the powerful human ability to move forward, and create great art, after tragedy. The program also features remarks from Rabbi Myers of the Tree of Life Congregation as well as literary readings, to honor the memory of those whose lives were taken at the Tree of Life Synagogues.

The Clarion Quartet musicians are all members of the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra and are dedicated to playing music of composers who were suppressed: https://www.clarionquartet.com/
