Description
The work Daniel in the Lion’s Den was composed in 2017 for the 16th Patmos Sacred Music Festival in Patmos, Greece. It is a modern, free adaptation of the homonymous liturgical drama, based on the monophonic melodies that were sung in the Middle Ages, when the drama Daniel in the Lion’s Den was performed. The harmonic elaboration, the accompaniment of the orchestra and the orchestral interludes, with the exception of the choir, are my own free composing choices. The narrator recites texts in Greek and English, taken from the Old Testament. The work was recorded live at the premiere on August 30th 2017 at the 16th Patmos Sacred Music Festival -“The Divine Revelation of Music”, at the open-air theatre of the Holy Cave of the Apocalypse.
