Mozart died at the age of 35 before he was able to complete his masterful Requiem. Maestro Gomez has conceived a “completion” by commissioning Tucson composer Dan Coleman to compose a work connecting the Requiem to Mozart’s choral gem Ave verum corpus. The quartet of soloists joining the TSO Chorus includes the return of mezzo-soprano Angela Brower for the second of two weeks, as well as soprano Zoe Allen, tenor Omar Najmi, and baritone Edward Vogel.Estonian composer Arvo Pärt’s Cantus in Memorium Benjamin Britten, is one of his most popular pieces and widely used in film. Equally well-known is Ravel’s Pavane pour une infante défunte. The composer’s title might lead the listener to think of this as a lament. Far from it, it’s an evocation of the 16th-century stately Spanish court dance, as it could have been danced by a little princess.
Presented in partnership with Tucson Symphony Orchestra
