CSO presents “Compassion” on Saturday 14th March 2020, 7.30 p.m. at Douglas Lilburn Auditorium, Christchurch Town Hall
Compassion draws from the rich worlds of Islam and Judaism to present a collection of profound and poetic messages surrounding the idea of compassion between human beings. Sung in Hebrew and Arabic, this deeply moving and powerful work weaves together the mesmerising voice of Lior with the sounds of the symphony orchestra.
Chief Conductor: Benjamin Northey

Tenor: Lior Attar
Programme:
Victoria Kelly/Te Ahikaaroa – New work for orchestra and kapa haka (premiere)
