features Requiem “The Holocaust,” winner of <strong>the</strong> 1995 Prize of ACUM, Israel. The title track of<br />
this extraordinary release includes a dramatic requiem for viola and orchestra that has been called<br />

distinguished by dramatic live performances from both soloist and orchestra captured in superb<br />
sound, enhanced by <strong>the</strong> wonderful new Klais organ at Auckland Town Hall. Two of <strong>the</strong> great<br />
French symphonic organ works on one disc!
