Eric Jacobsen joins the New Jersey Symphony to conduct a program that centers on honoring the lives of those that were lost, beginning with Ravel’s Le Tombeau de Couperin. Then, Tiffany Townsend takes the spotlight to perform Walker’s Pulitzer Prize-winning Lilacs before she and the Symphony are joined by Reginald Smith Jr. and the Montclair State University Chorale for Fauré’s divine choral-orchestral masterpiece, Requiem.
