Monteverdi Choir & Orchestras
Mozart Requiem

Vienna, 1791 – a knock on the door, a masked stranger in a grey cloak, and a secret commission that even Mozart couldn’t afford to refuse. Everyone knows the myth behind Mozart’s Requiem, but no matter how much you enjoyed Amadeus, the piece itself is even more extraordinary – and few performers are better equipped to explore its mysteries than the Monteverdi Choir. Their classic recording was the top choice on BBC Radio 3’s Building a Library, and tonight, with the Orchestre Révolutionnaire et Romantique, they return to the unforgettably poignant world of Mozart’s last – and most personal – masterpiece.

Mozart Requiem
Bach Singet dem Herrn ein Neues Lied BWV 225
Schubert Symphony No.5
