About this event

This is a rare opportunity to experience and enjoy Mozart’s two great masterpieces in one concert. Don’t miss the dramatic and hopeful beauty that this opportunity presents.

The Requiem was Mozart’s final work, composed in the short period before his death in December 1791. He was only 35. Though completed by others in his circle, Mozart captures the drama and visceral emotion of the liturgy and generations of artists have been inspired by these great masterpieces ever since.

Ciarán Kelly, Music Director of The Guinness Choir, said: “The Requiem was one of the first large-scale pieces I ever learned and performed, and it remains my favourite choral work to this day. The mystery around these works only adds to the excitement we feel when we hear and perform them. .."

They will be joined by their wonderful soloists: Kelli-Ann Masterson, Megan O’Neill, Leanne Fitzgerald, Andrew Gavin, and Rory Dunne.
