Verdi Requiem

PRESENTED IN ASSOCIATION WITH QPAC

If you’re hanging out for a mammoth vocal event in 2025, this is it. Not only do we have the Brisbane Chamber Choir chorus joining us on stage – we’ve also invited four top-tier soloists to sing alongside our orchestra in this impassioned performance of Verdi’s Requiem.

The Italian composer dedicated this colossal Requiem to Alessandro Manzoni – an author whose work he absolutely adored. Verdi himself conducted the mass when it was first performed in Milan, 1874. Now, Italian cellist-conductor Umberto Clerici stands at the podium to present this history-defying music with Queensland Symphony Orchestra and our very special vocal guests.
