Vespers is often considered Rachmaninoff's greatest choral work, and a part of the piece was requested by the composer to be performed at his own funeral. Following the January 27, 2023 release of The Clarion Choir's recording of the work, and in celebration of Rachmaninoff's 150th birthday, the Choir performs it on the stage where the composer himself performed as a pianist and conductor more than 80 times.
