This musical celebration is designed to bring comfort and solace to persons close to NYTS who have lost loved ones, and to focus on the Five Year Anniversary of the World Trade Center catastrophe as well as honoring the lives of men and women lost while serving in the Armed Forces.

Works will feature new works by Brian Schober and Katherine Hoover, and will include Max Lifchitz's "Still Life" performed October 2001, a reflection of the 9/11 tradegy; Lynn Kurtz "The Jewish Cemetery at Newport" will also be performed. Works by Virgil Thompson, James Cohn, Sibelius and Schubert will complete this lovely program.
