The Three Hermits - Stephen Paulus - DND1025

The Three Hermits

Stephen Paulus, Composer

An Original "church opera" in the style of Benjamin Britten, after a story by Leo Tolstoy. A compelling work featuring singers from the Minneapolis Opera and the choir of the House of Hope Presbyterian Church in St. Paul. Music composed by Stephen Paulus; Libretto by Michael Dennis Browne.

Reviews- "fine singing from the chorus, strong characterizations and voices from James McKeel as the Bishop, Miriam Langsjoen as his mother and Mark Schowalter as the fishermana deceptively simple score with luminous choral writing, ample atmospheric and dramatic effects from an orchestra of 11 pieces, and vocal lines for the principal characters that sing nicely but never mask the words." -Michael Anthony, Minneapolis Star Tribune
