York Musical Society Choir and Orchestra

When Giuseppe Verdi sets the drama of the Requiem Mass, what do you get? Not smooth, angelic counterpoint but rip-roaring choruses, thrilling orchestral accompaniment with brass and timpani, and soaring melodies. Yet there are moments of stillness, too. Come and hear this uplifting work performed by a large choir, professional soloists and orchestra in York’s awe-inspiring Minster. You’ll enjoy what some say is Verdi’s greatest opera!

 

The choir will be joined by York Musical Society Orchestra and soloists in the beautiful setting of York Minster.

Conductor: David Pipe

Soprano: Elinor Rolfe Johnson

Mezzo-Soprano: Alison Kettlewell

Tenor: Peter Davoren

Bass: Trevor Eliot Bowes
