Adoration (Live)

Alan Pierson, The Choir of Trinity Wall Street, Silvana Quartet

Release Date: August 8th, 2025

Adoration is the world premiere live recording of an electroacoustic chamber opera by composer Mary Kouyoumdjian and librettist Royce Vavrek, adapted from Atom Egoyan’s film of the same name. Produced by Beth Morrison Projects, the work follows a high school student whose fictional story about a terrorist plot goes viral, unpacking how grief, racism, and media distortion collide to obscure the truth. Conducted by Alan Pierson, the cast features Miriam Khalil, Omar Najmi, David Adam Moore, and Grammy Award winner Karim Sulayman, alongside Naomi Louisa O’Connell and Marc Kudisch. They are joined by the Grammy-nominated Choir of Trinity Wall Street under Thomas McCargar, the Silvana Quartet, and sound designer Daniel Neumann, with electronics by Kouyoumdjian.
