Juno Award nominated singer Aviva Chernick and conductor Evan Mitchell join London Symphonia for this unique concert experience that touches on themes of beauty, spirituality and balance through the rich tapestry of music from Jewish origins. The soulful music of Ernest Bloch and Gustav Mahler is woven together with songs by Chernick, inspired by her diverse musical legacies and the teachings of her mentor, Sephardic musician Flory Jagoda.

Aviva Chernick blends traditional and original melodies with rich poetry in Judeo‑Spanish, known as Ladino. In her words,
“Here we present a concert that is a conversation through time: my personal, intimate Jewish musical voice reflected against the richness of Ernest Bloch’s own story. These pieces, together with the Sephardic songs of my mentor Flory Jagoda and Mahler’s Adagio, leave us with the truth that deeply personal creations invite us all into the universal.”
