Cantor Phil Baron welcomes Dr. Steve Rothstein, Artistic Director of the Judaic Sacred Music Foundation

The creation of a symphony based on the liturgy of the High Holy Days

Join Dr. Steve Rothstein as he takes you through the journey to bring your favorite High Holy Days memories from the synagogue to the concert hall via a multi-media presentation.

Imagine how you feel when you hear Avinu Malkeinu, B’rosh Hashanah Yikateivun, Kol Nidre, or the
sound of the shofar. Now imagine how that beautiful music would sound played by an eighty-piece
orchestra.
 
Professor Robert H. Freilich founded the Judaic Sacred Music Foundation in 2014 and merged his love of Jewish and classical music. The Foundation commissioned Dr. Steven P. Rothstein, a composer with a Ph.D. in Classical Music Composition from UCLA, to compose the Judaic Symphony. Together they identified synagogue melodies and motifs of the 18th-20th centuries to be included in the piece.
