Performer: Zarina Abaeva

Kurioser als die Oper selbst: Belyakin rettet die Aufführung, musicAeterna den ägyptischen Pomp und Schrecken und drei Solisten die Theatralik.

In Currentzis' vision, Verdi's Requiem was both a spectacle and a soul-searching exercise for the musicians, as well as for the listeners.

The musicians of MusicAeterna were impassioned, engaged and energised into a single force in this performance of Verdi's Requiem at the Aix Easter Festival.
