SUMMARY:Mozart Requiem
DESCRIPTION:Buy Tickets\nMozart died while writing his own Requiem. Perhaps that is why we still find this music – by turn terrifying\, heartbreaking and serene\, so compelling. \nAlso at this concert\, you’ll experience powerful photographs Edward Burtynsky on the big screen while hearing soaring works by Tulev and Gjeilo. \nTry Us Out! For this concert only\, all tickets are $40 or less! That’s less than half the regular cost for best seats in the house. \nCome early to see Burtynsky’s compelling photographs up close! From 5:30 p.m. on Saturday\, the Kitchener-Waterloo Art Gallery will display some of the Burtynsky photos in its own collection. A curator will be on hand to talk about the art before the concert and also at intermission. \nThe Art Gallery is located in the same building\, just across the hall from the concert theatre beside the box office. \nMozart Requiem\nGjeilo: Song of the Universal; Luminous Light of the Soul\nTulev: Psalm 23 \nEllen McAteer – Soprano\nChristina Stelmacovich – Mezzo-Soprano\nJean-Philippe Lazure – Tenor\nClarence Frazer – Baritone \nKitchener-Waterloo Symphony\nGrand Philharmonic Choir\nMark Vuorinen – Conductor \nSaturday October 20th\, 7:30pm\nCentre in the Square\, Kitchener \n
