| Summary |
"This edition is the first publication of The Oratorio of Daniel by George F. Bristow. An important New York educator, conductor, string player, organist, and composer, Bristow wrote several large choral works and operas, as well as dozens of smaller compositions. The Oratorio of Daniel, which Bristow completed in 1866 and which was initially performed in December 1867 and January 1868, was well-received by audience and critics alike. Reviewers regarded it as one of the most significant works of its time and compared it to Mendelssohn's Elijah. In his Handbook of American Oratorios and Cantatas, Thurston Dox called The Oratorio of Daniel "the greatest American oratorio ever written."" -- Provided by publisher. |
