Verdi’s Messa di Requiem – his mass for the dead – is an undisputed masterpiece, thrilling and dramatic.

Description

Join us and our Chief Conductor designate, David Robertson, for a concert that celebrates Verdi’s 200th anniversary with one of his most awe-inspiring creations.  In his Requiem, Verdi brought together his theatrical instincts, his gift for vocal writing and a whole life’s experience to create a musical work that spoke to an entire nation in mourning.

In his Requiem, Verdi brought together his theatrical instincts, his gift for vocal writing and a whole life’s experience to create a musical work that spoke to an entire nation in mourning. This public expression of private grief and faith is both operatic and profound. From the terror of the “Dies irae” to the weeping “Lacrymosa” and the glowing serenity of the “Lux aeterna”, this could easily be an “opera in ecclesiastical vestments” – and that would be a compliment!
