About this Event
Join the Wichita State University Concert Chorale, A Cappella Choir, and Symphony Orchestra for a performance of W. A. Mozart's final musical statement: his iconic Requiem, a monumental work shrouded in historical intrigue. Rounding out the program are two twentieth-century works: Tarik O'Regan's Triptych, an exciting and varied exploration of death through a variety of texts that create a progression of grief to joy, and Randall Thompson's beloved The Last Words of David.
Faculty soloists Emily Sternfeld-Dunn, soprano, Deborah Baxter, mezzo-soprano, and Randolph Lacy, tenor, are joined by guest baritone Alan Dunbar for the Mozart. New WSU Assistant Professor of Choral Music Michael Hanawalt conducts the performance.
