Corelli wrote his Sinfonia for an oratorio by another composer, and later recycled it into one of his rather more famous concerti grossi. These works for orchestra and a group of soloists inspired generations of composers, not least this beautiful piece by Bloch.

American violinist Simone Porter leads this collaboration between New Century and students from the San Francisco Conservatory of Music in this musical tour of illumination. Featuring works from the 12th to the 21st century, each piece on the program depicts different kinds of light: light from nature, light that inspires or clarifies, light that bestows joy.  Beginning with Andrew Norman's Sabina, written in response to an ecstatic experience watching the sun rise in an ancient Roman cathedral, and moving through the upward gaze of Hildegard von Bingen's antiphon to divine wisdom, the program concludes with Mozart's Divertimento in F Major, the very spirit of levity and brilliance.
