Verdi

Requiem

Ashtead Choral Society presents one of the most explosive choral masterpieces ever written.

Verdi’s Requiem is a work of staggering intensity. A fusion of operatic passion and sacred ritual that hurls listeners from whispered prayer to the thunderous terror of the Dies Irae. With its blazing brass, soaring soloists and choral forces, this is music that grips the soul and refuses to let go. In this special performance, Ashtead Choral Society combines with the full forces of Kent Sinfonia to unleash the dramatic power of Verdi’s vision.

Join us for an evening where the church becomes a theatre of the eternal, and experience the overwhelming emotion and unforgettable power of Guiseppe Verdi’s Messa da Requiem.
