Composer Nicholas Weininger offers his first major work Hakol Hevel, or All is Mere Breath examining the relationship between forced isolation and how we as human beings bring about either our collective freedom or captivity. A deep and complex 10-movement work with a chamber orchestra and oratorio soloists, it is the first new choral/orchestral piece for a men’s chorus we’ve seen in a long time. We’re thrilled to have the privilege of bringing it to life and sharing it with our audiences. The piece makes an impassioned plea for us to embrace humility, reject divisiveness, and come back into the light.
