The six songs of Lori Laitman’s “Vedem” song cycle are excerpted from her larger work, the “Vedem” oratorio, set for boys chorus, mezzo soprano and tenor soloists, and orchestra. The songs’ texts give a glimpse of the boys’ hardships suffered during the Holocaust. The performers are Kyle Szabo, violin; Michael Baron, piano; and Jeanie Darnell, soprano.
