Fire Water Paper: A Vietnam Oratorio

Album by Elliot Goldenthal & Yo‐Yo Ma & Ann Panagualias & James Maddalena & Pacific Symphony & Carl St. Clair

Fire Water Paper: A Vietnam Oratorio is an oratorio album by American composer Elliot Goldenthal, released in 1996. The work blends orchestral, choral and contemporary classical elements with touches of electronic and rock-inflected sonorities to confront themes of the Vietnam War, and it represents an example of Goldenthal extending his output from film composition into large-scale concert forms.
