Program:
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Ave verum corpus, in D major
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Requiem

Around the All Souls’ Day, the Vanemuine symphony orchestra will perform Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s last major work – The Requiem – under the baton of conductor Risto Joost. When the piece was commissioned, the composer was already gravely ill and began composing it at the end of 1791. Unfortunately, he died before completing the work and thus it was finished by one of his students. The programme also includes Mozart’s motet Ave verum corpus, which he wrote in 1791.

PROGRAM


Soloists Pirjo Jonas, Karmen Puis, Rasmus Kull or Hisatoshi Nezu, Simo Breede or Kristjan Häggblom
Conductor Risto Joost
Vanemuine opera choir and Vanemuine symphony orchestra

 

Students of the Heino Eller Music High School will take part in the concerts of Tartu and Viljandi
