Foley tragically passed away before his work achieved widespread public recognition. He nonetheless left behind an undiscovered trove of beautifully sweeping songs, overflowing with soaring melodies, that blend Broadway and classical art song with widespread influences from folk to soul.
Stephen Sondheim—an early mentor of Foley—called him “among the best of his generation at setting lyrics and writing music that evokes character and mood.”
Watch Felciano and Pérez Flanagan sing “The Hidden Sky” below.
