“Douglas Moore’s ‘Giants in the Earth’ surprised me when Maestro Gier first shared the score and libretto with me. Moore was writing at a juncture in 20th-century American music - confidently including beautiful melodic themes, while at the same time embracing dark and complex harmonies one might associate with the opera of today.
“The result is emotionally dynamic and engaging. Maestro Gier has championed this work for years, and everyone involved - players and singers alike - approached the recording with energy and curiosity. Recording Giants was a pleasure, and that energy comes through on the album. Enjoy.” Nathaniel Reichman, producer & mastering engineer
The world premiere recording of ‘Giants in the Earth’ will be released in full on July 10th.
