Written for exactly the same instrumentation, Reena Esmail’s beautiful This Love Between Us and Bach’s brilliant Magnificat make an interesting pairing, juxtaposing the familiar and the unfamiliar, the past and the present, and a young and talented Indian-American composer and a venerated German master. Both works capture the awe and magnificence of our humanity.

• This Love Between Us: Prayers for Unity, Reena Esmail

• Magnificat, J. S. Bach
