It was composed in memory of Alessandro Manzoni, an Italian poet and novelist whom Verdi admired. Verdi originally wrote one of the movements in remembrance of Rossini; it was part of a mixed mass project with 13 different composers, which never came to pass. The work was at one time called the Manzoni Requiem. It is rarely performed in a religious service, and is usually in concert form. |

Summer Sing-Ins: Brahms & Handel, Omid Zoufonoun, conductorWednesday, August 3, 7:00-9:30pmIn the fourth session of the 2016 Summer Sing-Ins, Omid Zofounoun will conduct Brahms’ Schicksalslied and Handel’s Messiah.

The famous Hallelujah Chorus ends part two. |

Summer Sing-In Series: Stravinsky Symphony of PsalmsWednesday, July 29, 7:30-10:00pmDr. Lynne Morrow will lead you through this 3-movement choral symphony.

Summer Sing-In Series: Brahms Liebeslieder WaltzesWednesday, July 22, 7:30-10:00pmMaestro Vance George will lead you through Brahms’ Love Songs.

Summer Sing-In Series: Cherubini Requiem in C minorWednesday, July 15, 7:30-10:00pmMaestro Michael Morgan will lead you in this all-choral Requiem Mass setting. This work premiered in January 1816, so our performance next season will be its 200th anniversary.

It is unusual and economic with all choral polyphonic singing. |
