Filmed at Artyard in Frenchtown, NJ, we present a concert featuring musical selections that confirm and celebrate the relevance of the recent exhibition “Shelter Is,” which explored the issues of sanctuary and community through a variety of media. The concert includes pieces by Carlos Simon inspired by the gospel music that shaped his youth; a new composition, Mystery for solo cello (commissioned by Musaics of the Bay) by Milad Yousufi; Stravinsky’s Élégie for solo viola; an arrangement of Amazing Grace for solo violin; and works by J.S. Bach, Kodály, Mozart, Dohnányi, and Enescu. Artistic Director and cellist Michelle Djokic is joined by violinist Siwoo Kim, violist Milena Pajaro-van de Stadt for this performance.
