Douglas Moore’s opera Carry Nation captures the turbulent life of America’s most uncompromising temperance crusader. This two‑disc New York City Opera recording, conducted by Samuel Krachmalnick, features commanding performances by Beverly Wolff, Arnold Voketaitis, Ellen Faull, and Julian Patrick. Moore’s vivid orchestration and theatrical instinct bring to life the fervor, conflict, and humanity behind one of the most polarizing figures of the early twentieth century. A landmark American stage work preserved in a powerful, authoritative performance.
