Music for Hard Times, a sonic resource for comfort and calming, was recorded during the COVID‐19 pandemic with the aim of answering a crucial question: "Can classical art music be used to make people feel better?" This unique performance seeks to provide solace and rejuvenation through the tools of classical music. Additionally, the Special Music School Choir, under the direction of Valérie Sainte‐Agathe, from the esteemed Kaufman Music Center will make a special appearance, adding yet another layer of talent to this extraordinary concert.
