Giacomo CARISSIMI: Jephte
Kile SMITH: The Waking Sun


Hailed as ‘a knockout’ by the  Philadelphia Inquirer, Kile Smith's  The Waking Sun  opens a window into that "otherness" waiting patiently for each of us while we tend to our daily existence. It's an ancient philosophy for the modern age. Carissimi’s Jephte, celebrated as one of the first masterworks of oratorio, is the ideal counterpart to Smith’s early music-inspired  tour de force.
