Dr Graeme Morton will discuss the history of Requiems from a choral perspective.

Originally written for use in liturgical contexts, the repertoire of the Requiem has also become a favourite in the concert hall. They form some of the most loved works of choral music. Those of Mozart, Brahms, Verdi and Faure are surely near the top of music lovers’ favourites, and will feature in this program presented by UQ’s Choral Fellow, Dr, Graeme Morton. But the Requiem genre is very extensive contains a vast number of hidden gems some of which will also be explored in this program.
