Here's what A Far Cry has to say about this concert's program:

"Lineage traces a line through history, family, and transformation. This is a program about what remains true within the histories we don’t just recall, but build on.

We begin with Georg Muffat’s Passacaglia, a baroque masterpiece built on unceasing variation—a musical form that grounds the listener even as it evolves. Lembit Beecher’s These Memories May Be True, reimagined for string orchestra, explores the murky space between fact and family folklore, where meaning lives not in accuracy but in transmission. Four folk songs, arranged by A Far Cry, draw from deep wells of American roots music, telling stories of struggle, survival, and reclamation. And Bartók’s Divertimento for String Orchestra, the first major work ever performed by A Far Cry, returns not as nostalgia, but as a touchstone—vivid, visceral, and alive."

This event is in solidarity with the Fall of Freedom movement which seeks to celebrate the experiences, cultures, and identities that shape the fabric of our nation in defiance of authoritarian forces.

Seating will be assigned. Please pick up your tickets at Will Call prior to the concert's start time.
