The 52-minute piece, scored for baritone, 2 pianos and archival sound montage, premières on Saturday, March 30 in First Baptist Church, Newton, MA.

Best regards, Bruno - Letters from Stalingrad is an electro-acoustic work conceived from the last two letters written by the composer's young uncle (19), Bruno Gawlick, before being listed as missing in action in late December 1942. The listener moves through time and space via a soundscape that integrates archival sound recordings with live spoken word, two seperate piano parts and the prophecy of the sung voice. The resulting work is unique and in its intimacy and profound reflections represents a fierce anti-war memorial.
