Serenade: The Love Album is an exploration of love in all its dimensions, featuring Leonard Bernstein’s Serenade and 10 world premieres from seven living composer-arrangers. Serenade is inspired by Plato’s Symposium. Seven ancient Greek philosophers debate their thoughts about love at a raucous dinner party.
Meyers thought it fitting to commission seven renowned arrangers to create ten works for violin and orchestra from love-inspired music that have been used on stage and film.
Love Album celebrates the 50th wedding anniversary of her parents. Her father grew up playing jazz clubs in Chicago and still has a near obsession for watching classic movies. Cinema Paradiso’s Love Theme, reminds Meyers of the time she and her husband watched the movie together, when they were just beginning their own journey.
