Moses in Nederland - Michael Kropf
Sabrina Tabby, violin
"Moses in Nederland is a piece for violin soloist and orchestra and is named for my great-grandfather Moses Schenkein, who as a European Jew living in Holland, was forced to lead his family on a dangerous and miraculous journey of escape from the horrors of the Holocaust. He was also an amateur violinist and composer, and left behind a folder of short melodic compositions. These works include melodic settings of Hebrew and Yiddish poetry, violin music, and a number of short tangos. As a composer and violinist myself, I've always felt a special kinship with my great-grandfather Moses; each movement of the concerto focuses on one of his melodies found in the aforementioned folder of compositions that my family inherited."
