the album cover for Heggie / Graham / Pacific Symphony - Radio Hour

Initially regarded as a master composer of art songs, Jake Heggie has since become known as perhaps America's leading contemporary composer of internationally acclaimed operas. Winning examples of both genres appear on this release: the world premiere recording of a short, one-act opera, The Radio Hour - as well as four shorter vocal pieces. The Radio Hour - the world's first-ever "choral opera" - is a compact work for silent actress, with running narrative and commentary from a choir. The program is rounded out with four mostly art song-based works in varied arrangements, several with choral elements, sung by the vaunted John Alexander Singers. Susan Graham, one of America's most beloved mezzo-sopranos, is heard in three of the shorter pieces; Pacific Symphony members provide the instrumentals. "A masterpiece of clarity and intensity, with a score that is at once thematically compact and richly inventive." San Francisco Chronicle (review of Jake Heggie's opera "Moby Dick")

  1. The Radio Hour: Part I: A Really Bad Day
  2. The Radio Hour: Part II: Through The Door
