Cry Of A People: The Jewish Soul, Journey Of The American Jew I attended a concert at the El Camino College Mar see Auditorium on Saturday, November 3, 2001, by Daniel Heifetz. A yellow shell cover surrounded the stage, which had five music stands 3 (three) on the left and 2 (two) on the right and piano on center stage. Daniel Heifetz, violin front center stage and the Classical Band: with special guest Carmen Balthrop, soprano. The Classical Band consisted of 2 (two) violinist, Janice Martin and Tao-Chang Yu, and one viola player Myron Maoris on the left, one pianist Micah Yui center, one bass; Christopher Chlumsky, and one cello, Lukas z Szyrner on the right. The program's title was Cry of a People: The Jewish Soul, Journey of the American Jew; it consisted of 11 (eleven) compositions. All of the compositions were about Jews and their struggle to overcome the Hitler Era. First, was B rocca (Blessing) Daniel Heifetz got solo; accompanied by the Classical Band. It was written during the 20th century. The piece reminded me of Egyptian music.
Their was imitation and a homophonic texture. It sounded wonderful. In the second half of the program and my most favorite was "Songs from the Holocaust, arranged by Meri a War shaver. There were three mini pieces "Close Your Little Eyes", "Kaddish", and "Never Say"; which were actually written by victims.
The special guest Carmen Balthrop, soprano, Daniel Heifetz, violin and Micah Yui, Panic performed this piece. I liked the composition because it was original. The texture was polyphonic, and the meter was duple. In all, the concert was a great experience for me. I enjoyed every last composition especially the last piece of the evening; "Summertime". The music was soothing to the ear.
I wouldn't mind attending another concert with Daniel Heifetz and The Classical Band performing.
