Buffalo Philharmonic Chorus and Orchestra Win Grammy Award as Best Choral Performance for the recording of Richard  Danielpour’s The Passion of Yeshua.

‘The Passion of Yeshua’ is a dramatic oratorio, the personal telling of the final hours of Christ on Earth. The work incorporates Christ’s Jewish faith in Hebrew passages, and also includes the seldom-heard voices of Mary Magdalene and Mary the Mother of God for the first time in a work of this form. The recording features Hila Plitmann, soprano; J’Nai Bridges, mezzo-soprano; Timothy Fallon, tenor; and baritones Matthew Worth, Kenneth Overton, and James K. Bass.
