Description
Revelation in the Courthouse Park is a musical setting of the tragedy The Bacchae of Euripides that Harry Partch completed in 1960. The story is set in America, but also in Old Thebes: Partch compares American, extremely religious followers with the insane women from the Greek tragedy. The play takes up many of the characteristics of his earlier major works and therefore requires an orchestra consisting of almost all of the instruments built by him by then.
