Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra: Mozart’s Requiem Performing R Strauss' Death and Transfiguration and Wagner's Music for 'Good Friday' from 'Parsifal', with Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra and Sarah-Jane Brandon (soprano), Daniela Lehner (alto), James Oxley (tenor) and Owen Gilhooly (baritone); conducted by David Hill. This concert features the most emotional of musical outputs on the subject of death and the transition into the afterlife. Strauss' Death and Transfiguration tells of a dying man's memories of the great loves of his past. Wagner's Good Friday Spell is one of the most beautiful depictions of nature in music, describing Parsifal's homecoming with the Holy Spear only to find that King Titurel has died shortly before. Mozart's Requiem is surrounded by an air of mystery owing to the composer's death before the piece was completed. It is a predominantly choral work with stunning vocal choral parts, complemented by solo singers and, of course, the Orchestra. Tickets: £36, £32, £26, £16, £10, £6 Concessions available for: Children (16 or under) Full-time students (in person only with valid proof of ID) Income support recipients (in person only with valid proof of ID) Wheelchair users One companion per wheelchair user Book all three Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra concerts and enjoy a 20% discount on ticket prices (not available online) Please call the box office. 01962 857275
