This vocal score is released in honor of the 60th anniversary of the assassination of US President John F. Kennedy on November 22, 2023. Little and Vavrek's opera JFK premiered at Fort Worth Opera in 2016, commissioned by Fort Worth Opera, American Lyric Theater,and Opera de Montreal. The opera is, as described by the creators, “a portrait of a precipice,” delving into the final hours that President John F. Kennedy spent in Fort Worth, Texas immediately before his assassination in Dallas. After the premiere, the Wall Street Journal proclaimed that Little and Vavrek “have captured the national sorrow and shock of that time.” The New York Times praised the opera as “haunting” and “rapturous,” and the Washington Post named Little as “a hope for the future of opera.”.
