At the end of this month the Seattle Symphony will premiere a major new work by Aaron Jay Kernis .  The piece is the composer’s third symphony and is titled “Symphony of Meditations.”  It was originally intended for the 2007/2008 Seattle Symphony season.  Kernis has based the work on an 11th Century Sephardic poem.  I will be publishing a Q&A with the composer later this month right here on The Gathering Note and in the JT News.

Anyone have a question they would like me to ask the composer? If so, leave your question in the comments section and I’ll be sure to ask!
