Verdi: Requiem Final Concert

Sala de Música y Congresos Lübeck

Visceral and soul-gripping, Verdi’s Requiem will rip your heart out and put it back together again. From its tender solo moments to the terrifying cries of the “Dies irae,” it’s a journey both fragile and powerful as the May Festival Chorus and Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra combine for this breathtaking Mass for the departed.

On Saturday, November 9, 2024, 11:00 AM at the Essex Library, Mann will talk about Giuseppe Verdi. Verdi was a leading Italian composer of opera in the 19th century, noted for operas such as Rigoletto (1851), Il trovatore (1853), La traviata (1853), Don Carlos (1867), Aida (1871), Otello (1887), and Falstaff (1893) and for his Requiem Mass (1874). Mann will illuminate the artistic and musical imagination of this profound man whose vision not only changed opera forever but also brought the Italian people together and helped fuel the Risorgimento, the unification and independence of Italy.

What could be a better start to Lent than a spectacular performance of Verdi's Requiem? Star conductor Gianandrea Noseda and the Zurich Opera Orchestra are a well-rehearsed team in the pit, using their sensitivity for dramatic situations to bring this operatic work to its full impact. They are supported not only by the collective large choir but also by a line-up of soloists of international caliber.
