An Unsung Symphony: Simon & Brahms

  • The Abyssinian Baptist Church 132 West 138th Street New York, NY, 10030 United States (map)

The Unsung Collective

“In another collaboration with The New York Philharmonic Orchestra we welcome J’nai Bridges in  an exciting New York premiere of Carlos Simon’s Songs of Separation. Along with text of Persian poet, Jalāl al-Dīn Muḥammad Rūmī, Simon’s music encompasses beauty, depth, polarity and an overall human experience illustrated quite vividly. 
The Unsung embraces Johannes Brahms’ Ein Deutsches Requiem, a true masterpiece. Welcoming soprano Brittany Renee of the Metropolitan Opera and baritone Phillip Bullock, the performance of this piece channels the humanness of intimacy, longing, motivation, and the power of influence.
Both works illustrate a powerful human experience and highlight the dynamic influence of women in one’s life.”
