Numinous The Music of Joseph C. Phillips Jr. |
About The non-opera compositions Inspired by the 1619 CYCLE
The past is still present.
In addition to the operas of the 1619 cycle, there are a series of accompanying orchestral, chamber, choral, and other non-opera compositions that also amplify and expand on the themes found in the opera cycle. The first two of these works are commissioned by the American Composers Orchestra: a smaller chamber work will premiere in 2024, and an orchestral work to premiere in 2026. Both compositions will be published by Boosey and Hawkes.
1. Title: TBD
A multi-movement composition commissioned by the American Composers Orchestra to premiere in Spring 2026. Stay tuned for more information
