From even the most sorrowful moments of darkness, moments of light are bound to emerge. The Sinfonietta explores love, loss, and unyielding hope through the musical storytelling of several narrators. From a heartfelt lament about the loss of a grandmother to Gorecki’s emotional Symphony of Sorrowful Songs, brace yourself for a moving and sensory musical immersion like never before!
