Immerse yourself in the captivating world of William Schuman's "The Witch of Endor," a compelling orchestral work that showcases the composer's unique voice and narrative prowess. Released on December 18, 2018, under the BMOP/sound label, this album is a testament to Schuman's ability to blend poetic storytelling with rich, evocative music.
The album opens with "Judith," a choreographic poem that sets the stage for the dramatic journey that follows. The centerpiece of the album is the five-part suite "The Witch of Endor," inspired by the biblical story of King Saul's encounter with the titular witch. Each part of the suite delves deeper into the narrative, with Schuman's masterful orchestration bringing the tale to life.
Clocking in at just over an hour and twenty minutes, this album is a substantial and rewarding listen.

Whether you're a longtime fan of Schuman's work or a newcomer to his music, this album offers a rich and engaging exploration of one of the 20th century's most distinctive voices in classical music.
