Our beloved Music in the Mountains Chorus will perform one of the most beautiful pieces ever written the Fauré Requiem in the peaceful, resonant environment of Peace Lutheran Church. Fauré wrote the Requiem as musical consolation, looking beyond a profoundly human response to death, suffering, and grief to a vision of paradise and the gentle mercy of eternal rest.
