Henri-Joseph Rigel — Symphony No. 4 in C minor, Op. 12, No. 4
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart — Symphony No. 31 in D major, K. 297/300a "Paris"
Gabriel Fauré — Requiem in D minor, Op. 48

This is not your typical Requiem. Anguish, loss, and fear of death are gone, replaced with a tender vision of paradise that awaits. Gabriel Fauré's masterpiece has become one of the most iconic works of the sacred choral repertoire, comforting audiences far beyond the composer's original Parisian congregation.

French-Canadian maestro Bernard Labadie conducts the divine score, along with two other works that premiered to great acclaim in Paris: Mozart's Symphony No. 31 and Rigel's Symphony No. 4.

Performances on April 4 & 6.
