The music of the early-mid 20th century was profoundly influenced by some of Classical Music’s greatest masters such as Johannes Brahms and was boldly looking toward international and folk influences even during the century’s darkest points. New West Symphony’s Holocaust Remembrance presentations feature New West Musicians and the internationally acclaimed Jerusalem Quartet performing an array of music illuminating vast stylistic and cultural treasures.
