Listen: Jennifer Higdon's Civil Words World Premiere

 

"On February 9, baritone Thomas Hampson and pianist Wolfram Rieger delivered the world premiere of Jennifer Higdon's Civil Words, a song cycle set to texts from the American Civil War. The performance was recorded for WQXR's Carnegie Hall Live series."

This may or may not have been incorporated into Cold Mountain, Higdon's first opera, which recently made its debut in Santa Fe. Excepts of that performance can be heard here: http://blogs.wfmt.com/relevanttones/2015/10/09/live-from-the-santa-fe-opera-festival/
