The violin concerto
The concerto is based on Baruch Berliner’s symphonic poem of the same name, inspired by the well-known Old Testament story where God tests Abraham’s faith by commanding him to sacrifice his only son, Isaac.
The composition is divided into five movements:
- Hineni / Here I am, my LORD
- The Departure
- The Question
- The Binding of Isaac
- The Blessing and Prayer

The violin concerto was first performed in May 2024 by violinist Haik Kazazyan, to whom the composer dedicated the concerto.
