– Philharmonie de Paris, Paris

About this event

This is a concert presentation of Verdi's Requiem, rather than a staged opera. The event is identified as a Vocal Concert and features Le Cercle de l'Harmonie and Audi Jugendchorakademie, conducted by Jérémie Rhorer. No director, stage director, set, costume, lighting, projection, choreography, or other staging/design credit is specified. The artistic concept centers on the contrast between the force of the Dies irae and the quieter passages of Libera me, presenting the work as an exploration of human passions between fear and hope. Verdi's liturgical framework and operatic vocal expression are reflected in movements and sections including Dies irae, Agnus Dei, and Sanctus.
