Apollo's Fire: O Jerusalem! Crossroads of Three Faiths

Apollo's Fire: O Jerusalem! Crossroads of Three Faiths

Presented by Apollo's Fire at Cleveland Institute of Music, Kulas Hall

In this new program from Jeannette Sorrell, music and poetry evoke a “tour” of the Jewish, Christian, Arab, and Armenian quarters of Jerusalem. Selections from Monteverdi’s Vespers of 1610 echo the rapturous singing of Jewish cantors in the temples. Medieval harp, oud, and exotic percussion blend with Arabic love songs and Sephardic ballads. The performers, including musicians of Jewish, Muslim, and Christian backgrounds, join in celebration of brotherhood and sisterhood.
