about
Hailed by Leonard Bernstein as “a heaven-sent maestro,” Abraham Kaplan is considered by many to be one of the greatest choral conductors and composers of his generation. Mr. Bernstein collaborated musically with Abraham Kaplan for over 13 years, calling on Kaplan’s expertise for performances such as the world premiere of his Kaddish Symphony and the Chichester Psalms. Distinguished by his compositions as well as his conducting, Kaplan has published and recorded at least four major works for chorus and orchestra. His music has been featured on America’s most popular syndicated radio program, Karl Haas’ “Adventures in Good Music,” on CBS Television, and on the Crystal Cathedral television broadcast. The Vienna Boy’s Choir will release a compact disc of his music in April 2004, for international distribution. Kaplan composed and performed his Fanfare for 12 Trumpets for the Queen of England on her visit to the United States in 1983, and a Fanfare for 12 Biblical Trumpets for the opening ceremony of the Crystal Cathedral in Los Angeles. Kaplan’s Crystal Cathedral Psalms were also commissioned for the Cathedral’s weekly television broadcast. Kaplan’s dynamic orchestra and choral guest conducting appearances include performances with the NBC Symphony, Israel Philharmonic, the Calgary Symphony Orchestra, the Little Symphony of St. Louis, the LENA Orchestra of New York, the Park East Orchestra, the Long Island Orchestra Da Camera, and the Kol Israel Choir and Orchestra.
