Join us for an unforgettable musical journey as we delve into the timeless beauty of Mozart’s Requiem.
Whether you’re a seasoned chorister or shower-singing enthusiast, come and sing with a choir of 400, as we learn from scratch one of Mozart’s most powerful works. This is also your chance to perform alongside a professional orchestra, the Bristol Ensemble, as well as four fantastic soloists!
Held in the transformed concert hall of Bristol Beacon, with its amazing acoustic and glorious sound, don’t miss the chance to be part of something extraordinary.
With years of experience directing choirs and ensembles, the day will be lead by Bristol maestro David Ogden. The event will then finish with a joyful concert performance in Beacon Hall.
No prior experience of Mozart’s Requiem is needed – everyone is welcome. Just bring your enthusiasm and love of music!
