Seven choirs from Israel, Canada and the United States will raise their voices in Leonard Bernstein’s “Kaddish” Symphony on the site in Nuremberg, Germany, where Hitler rallied his storm troopers in the 1930s. The Nov. 25 and 26 concerts in the Meistersinger Hall will commemorate three November anniversaries: the 10th anniversary of Bernstein’s death, the 62nd anniversary of the Kristallnacht pogroms in Germany, and the 950th anniversary of the founding of Nuremberg.
