London Philharmonic Orchestra: Death and Transfiguration

The masked stranger, the secret commission, the deathbed struggle: if you’ve seen Amadeus, you’ll already know the legend of Mozart’s Requiem. But the music itself is more compelling than any movie: dark, majestic and heartrendingly beautiful, you simply have to hear it performed live. As a singer herself, Nathalie Stutzmann understands the Requiem from the inside. She’s assembled a world-class team of soloists, plus the London Philharmonic Choir, to bring new life to Mozart’s last testament, and she’s paired it with a dazzlingly different vision of the afterlife by one of Mozart’s biggest fans – the young Richard Strauss.
