Delos – a long-standing champion of great music’s therapeutic and healing powers – is delighted to release this remarkable musical celebration of peace.

Distinguished conductor Sir Gilbert Levine’s career is particularly notable for his many concerts with major orchestras that have been widely broadcast on PBS. This Jewish musician’s activities have largely focused upon interfaith concerts of spiritually potent music celebrating universal human themes and values.

The performances preserved here – recorded in concert at Washington DC’s DAR Constitution Hall – celebrate the canonization of two recent Popes: John XXIII and John Paul II. This “Pope’s Maestro” became a friend of the latter “Polish Pope,” which led to a series of similar events at the Vatican and elsewhere. The reigning Pope Francis is also honored.

The peace-themed program includes well-known music by Copland, Verdi, Górecki, Bernstein and Brahms. Meticulously recorded and filmed for repeated major-metro domestic PBS broadcasts (also in Europe) through 2017, these masterpieces are heard in glowing renditions by the vaunted Orchestra of St. Luke’s plus the two fine choirs of the Krakow Philharmonic and the Choral Arts Society of Washington.

Many thanks for taking the effort to share all the beautiful music with us during 2018 - it is very much appreciated.

However there is a tendency to offer higher bit rate files (29-96, HiRes, DSD, SACD), which I generally down-convert to 320 kbps - an excellent compromise between sound quality and memory space (= more space for more music) - at least to my old well exercised ears.

You have introduced me to much music that hitherto I was unaware existed - thank you.

Festive greetings and best wishes to you and your family for 2019.

Cheers.
