Honegger: Jeanne d'Arc au bûcher
Arthur Honegger's hugely inventive Jeanne d’Arc au bûcher vividly tells the tale of Joan of Arc in the hours before her execution. Honegger's oratorio is written for orchestra, choir, children's choir, vocal soloists and narrator, and this new recording from the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra is conducted by Stéphane Denève, with singers including soprano Christine Goerke joining narrator Judith Chemla.
