The Gonzales Cantata, composed and conducted by Melissa Dunphy. Philadelphia Fringe and Live Arts Festival, Sept. 4-6, 2009, in this presentation, she uses actual transcripts of a 2007 Senate Judiciary Committee hearing to transform the tedious machinations of politics into a brilliant work of art. The only thing missing, alas, is a point. Alberto Gonzales facing Arlen Specter isn’t exactly Christ confronting Pontius Pilate.
