Jewish Memory begins with arrangements of niggunim, traditional wordless chants. Shulamit Ran’s Glitter, Shards, Doom, Memory (2014) commemorates those lost in the Holocaust. Mieczysław Weinberg, who escaped Nazi-occupied Poland for the USSR, became a colleague and close friend of Shostakovich. His String Quartet No. 6, composed shortly after his escape in 1945, concludes the program.
