Soprano Dominika Zamara and the Mozaika Quartet gave the European premiere of James Adler’s Alleluia for Peace, with the composer conducting, in Rome on October 24, 2025 at the Palazzo Valentini. Waiting List magazine calls the performance “the highlight of the evening … a hymn to peace that had its world premiere at Carnegie Hall in New York on June 30.”
Following the concert, Dominika and James were honored with Artists Recognition awards sponsored by the Italian government. On Saturday, Dominika and James were then additionally given the honor of receiving a first edition “Artistic Instincts International Award 2025” from the APS Cultural Association.
