Celebrating the DACAMERA Young Artist Program
Astrid Nakamura, violin; Chris Ellis, cello; Sarah Rothenberg, piano
The author of Time’s Echo: The Second World War, the Holocaust, and the Music of Remembrance comes to Houston for an evening of music and conversation. Time’s Echo, a genre-blurring meditation on music, war and memory, has been named History Book of the Year by The Sunday Times and hailed as “the outstanding music book of this and several years” by The Times Literary Supplement. Pianist Sarah Rothenberg and DACAMERA Young Artists perform Shostakovich’s Piano Trio No. 2 in E Minor, and Artistic Director Sarah Rothenberg leads a discussion with Jeremy Eichler.
This program is supported by Humanities Texas, the state affiliate of the National Endowment for the Humanities. Any views, findings, conclusions, or recommendations expressed during this event, do not necessarily represent those of the National Endowment for the Humanities or Humanities Texas.
“a work of vast historical scholarship and acute musical insights.” – The New Yorker on Jeremy Eichler’s Time’s Echo
