New York City’s leading chamber choir, Musica Viva NY, kickstarts the holiday season with THIS LOVE BETWEEN US, a one-night only concert capturing the awe and magnificence of our humanity on Sunday, December 8, 2024, at 5:00 p.m., at Manhattan’s All Souls NYC. Led by the choir’s intrepid Artistic Director/Conductor Alejandro Hernandez-Valdez, Musica Viva NY will be joined by a baroque orchestra, sitar and tabla players, and guest vocalists. Reena Esmail’s beautiful This Love Between Us: Prayers for Unity and Bach’s brilliant Magnificat written for Christmas Day make an interesting pairing, juxtaposing the familiar and the unfamiliar, the past and the present, and a young Indian-American composer and a venerated German master.
