Luca says: I will be conducting the Orchestra Without Borders in a benefit concert for Communities Without Borders with chamber orchestra music featuring works from Argentina, Armenia, and the USA, including highlights from OWB’s upcoming season.
The theme for this concert will be “Dances and Meditations Across the Divide,” and the program will feature a selection of classical and jazz music, including highlights from the upcoming season of Orchestra Without Borders. The Orchestra will be joined by dancer/choreographer Helena Froelich and the Ally Project, featuring jazz pianist Jonathan Fagan and former poet-laureate Terry Carter at the intersection of music and social justice. Join us for a program that explores the meditative and dynamic sides of the human experience, drawing on folk cultures from around the world from Latin America to the Near East alongside the music of American composers Florence Price, William Grant Still, and Reena Esmail.
