Grand End-of-Semester Concert with Verdi's Requiem at the Glocke

The University of Bremen Choir and Orchestra will hold their end-of-semester concert at the Glocke concert hall on Sunday, July 6, at 5 p.m. The program will feature Giuseppe Verdi's “Messa da Requiem.” Mariano Chiacchiarini will conduct the concert.

Around 250 musicians from the orchestra and choir will perform Verdi's “Messa da Requiem” on the stage of the Glocke's Great Hall. The requiem is considered a masterpiece that combines the power of opera drama with the spiritual depth of liturgy. With dramatic highlights such as the powerful “Dies Irae” and the moving “Libera Me,” Verdi creates a musical reflection on life, death, and hope. The University of Bremen's choir and orchestra will present the results of their hard work during the summer semester in this final concert at the Glocke Bremen's Great Hall, together with international soloists.

Soloists:

Agnes Lipka, soprano
Gabriella Guilfoil, mezzo-soprano
Hany Abdelzaher, tenor
José Gallisa, bass

Tickets are available from the Glocke and via Eventim, as well as at the University of Bremen's campus dining hall (Mensa) from July 2 to 4.
