Description
Mozart's cherished Requiem is intensely dramatic, with origins shrouded in mystery. Mozart received an anonymous commission for a Requiem Mass in 1791 and came to believe he was composing it for his own funeral. By the time of his death that December at the age of 35, it remained unfinished; it is widely believed that his pupil, Süssmayr, completed it but the space for doubt keeps alive the mystique. It is truly a masterpiece, with its extraordinary beauty, subtlety and profound expression touching each new generation.
The first half of the concert includes works by Christopher Tin on the theme of flight including the iconic theme Sogno di Volare from the video game Civilization, to follow Gibbons's pristine The Silver Swan, as well as Jessica Curry's haunting Echo, a CEFC commission dedicated to her late father.
