Easter concert 2016

Co-produced with Megaron-the Athens Concert Hall 

Wed. 27 April 2016 19:30

Megaron – The Athens Concert Hall
Christos Lambrakis Hall

While the great Italian composer Giuseppe Verdi is most closely associated with the opera, his Requiem is a truly awe-inspiring work. Drawn from the very depths of his being, it is a cry of existential grief but also of hope. Leading opera singers and choirs under the baton of the distinguished German conductor Marcus Bosch leave their unique mark of musical devotion on Holy Week.
