From the Royal Albert Hall, London. Suzy Klein presents the 麻豆社 Symphony Orchestra and Chorus, the Crouch End Festival Chorus and other soloists in Verdi's Requiem.
From the Royal Albert Hall, London. Presented by Suzy Klein.
A line-up featuring over 220 voices of the massed choirs of the 麻豆社 Symphony Chorus and Crouch End Festival Chorus, an international array of soloists and Jiri Belohlavek conducting the 麻豆社 Symphony Orchestra in Verdi's Requiem, a work that the composer called one of his greatest achievements.
One of the best known choral works in the repertory, the Requiem is every bit as popular as Verdi's famous operas, and the composer himself conducted the British premiere at the Royal Albert Hall in 1875 to a tumultuous reception.
