Thanks you, Liane Curtis
*Editors Note
We received the following from Michele Edwards:
Liane Curtis asked if the Rochester Philharmonic's performance of Fanny Hensel's Cantata Hiob (Job) might be the US premiere. It is not. I conducted the American premiere with the Macalester Festival Chorale, November 20-21, 1993 in St Paul at St Luke's Catholic Church with professional orchestra. Almost 20 years ago!
I think this is a wonderful piece and very exciting that it is receiving some added visibility (or audibility). Hopefully, this exposure will result in some more performances.
Best, Michele
