Speaking of the power of the artist, Josef Conrad writes that the artist "speaks to our capacity for delight and wonder, to the sense of mystery surrounding our lives; to our sense of pity, and beauty, and pain; to the latent feeling of fellowship with all creation — and to the subtle but invincible conviction of solidarity that knits together the loneliness of innumerable hearts, to the solidarity in dreams... which binds together all humanity."
At a time of mounting polarization, Mannes Sounds offers a moving program celebrating art's transcendent power to harness this solidarity in dreams, and thereby connect all humankind.
