From birth to death and every important occasion in between, rituals – small and large – are a vital part of our daily lives. This is a program of powerful, emotional and eloquent music connecting us to some of life’s important rituals. Duruflé’s iconic Requiem has been performed in Adelaide on many occasions in the most familiar version for choir, soloists and organ. This program however, features the first Adelaide performance of the Requiem in its full orchestral version.
