Fifteen composers stitch together the story of King David in the new oratorio "David's Quilt," a collaboration between UCLA's Herb Alpert School of Music and the Max Helfman Institute for New Jewish Music. The performance was supported by the Milken Archive of Jewish Music and funded in part by the Lowell Milken Fund for American Jewish Music and the UCLA Leve Center for Jewish Studies.

It took more than two years to bring “David’s Quilt,” an oratorio in 18 episodes by 15 Los Angeles-based composers, to life.
