Sweet Jesus I hate Bill O'Reilly
Quote:
Mackris v. O’Reilly is the new work by Igor Keller. The oratorio (which is basically an opera without the scenery), is for a 31-piece chamber orchestra, 32-voice chorus and three soloists, directed by Kris Falk.
The libretto is comprised of the original court document and O’Reilly’s on-air settlement announcement. Imagine a two-hour neo-baroque extravaganza including seven chorales, two madrigals, three choruses, four recitatives, two instrumental entrances and numerous arias dedicated to the sexual exploits of the most popular man in cable news.

Here is the site for the oratorio. It premieres January 12 at the University of Washington in Seattle. Seattlers - GO and report!
I'll have to wait for the recording.
