Cyprian Consiglio, John Pennington the Santa Fe Desert Chorale, Phoenix Chamber Ensemble ~ magnificent~!
Inspired by the Gospel of Luke, the French composer Lucien Deiss, as well as Pontormo's frescos of the Annunciation from the church of Santa Felicita in Florence… Cyprian Consiglio's The Song of Luke is "an oratorio based on the Infancy Narrative of Jesus, according to the Gospel of Luke." Premiered at the Animas Music Festival in the spring of 2002, this recording features the Santa Fe Desert Chorale—one of the premier professional chamber choirs in the United States—and the world-renowned Phoenix Chamber Ensemble.
The CD booklet includes libretti and the composer's notes in English and Italian.
