At the beautiful St. Mary's Episcopal church (near the Strand Theater.) A classical music concert featuring Robert Schumann' song cycle: "Dichterliebe," Bach's choral motet, "Jesu meine Freude," and songs and arias by Brahms, Verdi, and Handel.
We are presently in a moment of incredible promise , with the potential for the
United States to welcome the spirit of the "New Silk Road" and to reverse the
decades of disintegration and violence. As Friedrich Schiller said, “True art is not
intended as a mere passing fancy but rather to make man actually free, and to
do so by awakening, exercising and developing within him his power to achieve
an objective distance from the sensible world, which otherwise weighs down
upon us like a dead object, pressing us like a blind force. This distance gives us
the power to transform the material world into the free work of our own
intellect, and to exert dominion over it through ideas.” Let us celebrate
creativity and brotherhood and promote the common aims of mankind through classical music.
