Joseph Parrish is blessed with a transfixing bass-baritone voice, and a staggering talent to go along with it. Having already graced DoC audiences with his time-stopping solo part in our massive Fauré Requiem Cemetery performances, he now descends to the Crypt for an intimate, soulful set of art songs and spirituals (accompanying himself at the piano for the latter part).
