Monday, September 25, 2006

Shostakovich's Symphony No. 13 commemorates the 1941 massacre of Jews at Babi Yar, a ravine outside the Russian city of Kiev. The work will be performed in the composer's two-piano version on Wednesday at the Museum of Jewish Heritage—A Living Memorial to the Holocaust. Joining us with a preview is Stephen Vann, the program's artistic producer.
