Benjamin Britten War Requiem
Dark, sobering, and wrought with tension, yet infused with hope and light, Benjamin Britten’s War Requiem reflects on war, across all generations and continents. With the words of poet and soldier Wilfred Owen set alongside traditional Latin texts, Britten’s call for reconciliation has been called a contemporary masterpiece. The SLSO is joined by three world-renowned vocalists, the St. Louis Symphony Chorus, and The St. Louis Children’s Choirs to create one of the most expansive ranges of emotion and sound imaginable.
