MacArthur ‘Genius Grant’ winner Courtney Bryan’s “Sanctum” headlines this annual Thanksgiving concert — a powerful piece infused with gospel influences and a call for unity against brutality. Michael Kropf’s moving violin concerto, “Moses in Nederland,” featuring Sabrina Tabby, echoes Yiddish tunes and poetry from Nazi-occupied Holland. This program is anchored by the powerful Little Priest Singers.

Courtney Bryan "Sanctum"

Michael Kropf  "Moses in Nederland" 

Niloufar Nourbakhsh "C Ce See"
