Streams in the Desert: Albany Records
Music for chorus and orchestra inspired by the Torah.
A student of Mario Davidovsky, Jacob Druckman and William Thomas McKinley, Meira Warshauer has devoted much of her creative output to Jewish themes and their universal message. As she writes, “The Torah, Jewish teaching and tradition, is likened to water. It is the source of blessing and goodness, filling all who drink from its well with the knowledge of God. I hope this recording will help to satisfy our thirst and encourage us to continue opening our hearts to the Eternal Spirit in each of us.”
My friend and long time Jewish Renewalist Meira Warschauer's "Like Streams in the Desert" is finally available on CD. I don't know if one can call this an oratorio, but it is an inspirational piece of music for Mezzo Soprano, Chorus and Orchestra, and it's beautiful music.
