- VerdiMessa da Requiem
- Viktoria Yastrebova Soprano
- Rosalind Plowright Mezzo Soprano
- Adrian Dwyer Tenor

- London Symphony Chorus
- Marios Papadopoulos Conductor
Due to unforeseen circumstances Teresa Cahill is unable to participate in tonight’s performance of Verdi’s Requiem. Oxford Philomusica is grateful to Viktoria Yastrebova, the celebrated Russian soprano, who has agreed to replace her at short notice.
When the greatest operatic composer of his day turned his attention to the innately dramatic text of the Latin mass for the dead, a work of extraordinary theatricality was the inevitable result. For this performance of Verdi’s still truly awe-inspiring masterpiece, Oxford Philomusica is joined by the London Symphony Chorus.
