The Garment of Praise Opera World Premiere

Feb 7th 2025

The Garment of Praise is the world premier of an opera composed by Kevin Waters, S.J. on the miraculous arrival of John the Baptist. Fr. Waters is the former Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences. The opera is set before John is born, a story of hope, communion, loss, and return between people who love one another and seek the depths of peace and renewal. In the quiet, an angel of mercy speaks.

Sponsored by the School of Leadership Studies, the Provost’s Office, the Office of Mission and Integration, the School of Education, and the College of Arts and Sciences.
