Schelomo: The Voice of Solomon

Cellist Ben Fried and pianist Wesley Chu explore Schelomo, a powerful musical portrait of King Solomon. The cello becomes Solomon's voice while the piano evokes the world around him — his doubts, his glory, and the restless energy of Ecclesiastes.

Join us for a short, accessible introduction followed by the full performance of this iconic work.
