The Washington Chorus and National Philharmonic are thrilled to present their next collaboration, One Song: Exultávit! This program features J.S. Bach’s beloved setting of the Magnificat and Reena Esmail’s extraordinary new work This Love Between Us, which juxtaposes Western classical music and Indian musical traditions. Both works explore the power of prayer, humility, and kindness while also presenting a bold vision for the future where more unites us than divides us—and the least among us matter the most.
The lamps may be different,
but the Light is the same.
All religions, all this singing, one song.
Concentrate on the Light.
– Rumi
My soul doth magnify the Lord…
He hath put down the mighty
from their seat: and hath exalted
the humble and meek.
– Mary, The Gospel of Luke
Featuring:
