"Requiem" by W. A. Mozart was performed by "Helikon-opera" soloists

On the 16th and the 17th of March soloists of “Helikon-opera” performed “Requiem” by W. A. Mozart in Roman Catholic Cathedral of Moscow. “Requiem” is the most famous works by Salzburg genius. Veiled with bleak legends and permeated with the mournful sorrow, “Requiem”, anyway, ease the souls of the public and fills them with the shining light, just as all of Mozart works. Music, written upon a canonical text of a funeral service, vividly depicts human soul’s experience in the face of the God: holy trembling and repentance and a lucid hope for God’ merciful love.

People’s artist of Russia Natalia Zagorinskaya (soprano), Irina Reynard (mezzo-soprano), Andrey Palamarchuk (tenor), Dmitry Skorikov (bass), choirmaster Eugene Ilin, conductor Valery Kiryanov. Organ’s part is perfromed by a laureate of international contests Anna Karpenko.
