Israeli Chamber Project
With Karim Sulayman, tenor
The Israeli Chamber Project has emerged as one of the most electrifying ensembles to appear in the past decade, winning worldwide acclaim for its depth and virtuosity. For their performance at the Bing, the group joins Lebanese-American tenor and recent Grammy Award-winner Karim Sulayman in a wide-ranging program that draws on texts of love, peace, and the shared strength in community, including Samuel Barber's Knoxville: Summer of 1915, Harrison Birtwistle's Bogenstrich, Naji Hakim's The Dove (Biblical) and Maronite Carols, Copland's Sextet, and more.
