"One of the most original and innovative American works of the past several decades."
- Robert Kyr
Craig Hella Johnson leads Conspirare in this world premiere recording of Considering Matthew Shepard, his musical response to the tragic death of a young gay man who has become an American icon and a symbol for hope and empowerment. This major new work for chorus, soloists and chamber ensemble sets a rich variety of texts by Lesléa Newman, Michael Dennis Browne, the composer himself and many others, leading us from anguish to understanding.
