Giuseppe Verdi’s antipathy towards the church is
vividly demonstrated in his operas, yet the Four
Sacred Pieces, the original version of the ‘Libera me’
from his dramatic Requiem and his setting of the
‘Ave Maria’ for soprano and string orchestra are
works of great fervour and beauty. The orchestral
version of his 1873 String Quartet opens a
programme in which conductor Sir Antonio
Pappano, soprano Maria Agresta and the Orchestra
and Chorus of the Academy of Santa Cecilia, Rome,
bring an authentically Italian bite to the music of the
man who, with Wagner, shaped the development
of 19th-century opera.Tickets £14 - £57.
