About this Event
We kick off our 27th season with Gabriel Fauré’s universally adored and serenely beautiful, Requiem in D Minor, Op. 48, commemorating the 100th anniversary of the composer’s death in 1924. We will perform the sublime work with a full orchestra of professional musicians from Northern Colorado and surrounding areas, as well as two nationally recognized soloists – soprano, Sarah Moyer and baritone, Harrison Hintzsche. Fauré’s luminous work is notably more comforting and peaceful than other popular Requiems. The composer expressed, “My Requiem has been said to express no fear of death; it has been called a lullaby of death. But that is how I feel about death: a happy deliverance, a reaching for eternal happiness rather than a mournful passing away…I wanted to write something different.” The concert will also feature Ola Gjeilo’s stunning work, Dark and Luminous Night accompanied by string quartet, as well as other delightful pieces by Florence Price, Jocelyn Hagen, and Hans Bridger Heruth.
