Chora Nova sings Mozart's Requiem & Grand Mass in C

Chora Nova's sixth season launches with two beautiful, powerful, and popular Masses by Mozart: his Requiem, left unfinished as he raced to complete it on his deathbed, and the grand Mass in C ("Coronation").

Dr. Paul Flight directs the chorus, orchestra, and four excellent soloists: Michele Byrd, Ruthann Lovetang, Brian Thorsett, and Paul Murray.

This year, we also initiate a series of pre-concert talks, free to all who attend the concert.
