La Jolla Music Society – Resilience

This concert unites the poignant Mendelssohn siblings’ works — Fanny’s unduly neglected remarkable work and Felix’s stirring String Quartet, a reaction to her early passing — with compositions by artists silenced or oppressed during WWII. It embodies the spirit of perseverance and the unbreakable will of the human spirit through music.
