Dvorak: Requiem
Our 37th installment of the annual Spring Oratorio!
Admired by his contemporaries (including Brahms and Tchaikovsky) Dvorák is today most remembered for his “New World” Symphony. However, his hauntingly beautiful Requiem is full of incredible lyricism, drama, and passion. This seldom heard masterpiece, performed by the critically acclaimed and world-renowned USNA Men’s and Women’s Glee Clubs, the Annapolis Symphony Orchestra, and the Goucher College Chorus, will become one of your favorites.
