"The Long Bright" update for March 11 show

The West Coast Premiere of “The Long Bright,” composed by Andrea Clearfield, with text by David Wolman, a cantata that serves as a tribute to the memory of David’s late wife, Anni Baker Wolman, who, after a courageous battle, succumbed to cancer at the age of 55. The performance will take place on March 11 at 7:30 p.m. at Royce Hall, UCLA.

The Concert is a collaborative effort between the Israel Cancer Research Fund, and the Los Angeles Jewish Symphony. “The Long Bright” features Israeli-born, Grammy award-winning soprano Hila Plitmann and Kol Isha, an intergenerational/interfaith women’s choir. Mandy Wolman, the daughter of Anni, will perform a violin solo.
