A conversation with Paul Moravec and Mark Campbell
We were excited to sit down with composer Paul Moravec and librettist Mark Campbell, the Pulitzer Prize-winning team that created the enormously successful Sanctuary Road, to discuss their latest oratorio, A Nation of Others. Paul and Mark chat about their decision to create a work about immigrants, the power of the oratorio form, the choice to place the action on a single day on Ellis Island in 1921, and collaboration with OSNY to develop this new commission. This epic new work makes its world premiere in OSNY’s season-opening concert on November 15, 2022 at Carnegie Hall, commissioned by OSNY through the generous support of Joanne Spellun. https://OSNY.ORG
