Christos Lambrakis Hall

Easter has always been a reason to warm up our spiritual quests. And undoubtedly, Leonard Bernstein, a genuine homo universalis of music in the 20th century, achieved this with his pieces of religious metaphysical content. His music, hearty sincere and emotionally charged, together with the contemplating Elegy by the Israeli composer Yoav Talmi, impart the due reverence for this year’s Easter celebration.
