Description
"Dominick Argento: Jonah and the Whale" is the second CD in the BMOP/sound catalog representing yet another successful collaboration between the Providence Singers and the Boston Modern Orchestra Project. Inspired by a 15th-century painting found on the ceiling of a church in Härkeberga, Sweden by painter Albertus Pictor, this large-scale oratorio draws upon a variety of sources including the 14th-century poem, "Patience, or Jonah and the Whale," the Vulgate Psalms, a Protestant hymnal, and the King James Bible. With outstanding performances by Thomas Oakes (narrator), Daniel Norman (tenor), and Daniel Cole (bass), conductor Andrew Clark leads the chorus and orchestra with skilled direction.
