MasterWorks IV – Triumphant Voices
Saturday, April 16, 2011 8 PM Concert Opening Notes 7:15 Springfield Symphony Chorale Verdi: Messa de requiem Program Notes Verdi’s Requiem, described as “an opera in ecclesiastical robes,” is operatic in scope and dramatic quality. Verdi composed the Requiem as a monument to a great man and in this he succeeded beyond all expectation. The great intensity and depth of feeling in this masterwork brings our season to a rousing conclusion. The Springfield Symphony Chorale, under the direction of Basil Fett, will be featured with the orchestra on this exciting masterwork. Join the Wrap Party! Please join us for a special reception after the final concert of the season to meet Peter Stafford Wilson and members of the orchestra. You won’t want to miss this special event!
