Synopsis

Product Description
Daron Hagen and Paul Muldoon's
first, and highly successful, opera is
based on the life of the great
American architect Frank Lloyd
Wright and Taliesin (Welsh for
'Shining Brow'), the home he built
for himself in Wisconsin. Popular
with audiences and critics alike,
Shining Brow has been hailed as a
masterpiece full of fresh ideas, and is
frequently performed. 'Hagen has a
gift for the big tune, and he serves up
some beauties' (New York Times).
'Its libretto is unusually inventive
and poetic' (Capital Times). For more information, visit the official Shining Brow website at daronhagen.com/brow

American Opera

(4 out of 5 stars)

"A fine recording of a very good american opera. The orchesteral, ensemble and choral sections are particularly good. The soloists are OK but not great. I look forward, with scant hopes, to seeing a production of this work."
