About The Event

The mysterious commission, the masked stranger... if you’ve seen Amadeus, you’ll already know the legends about Mozart’s Requiem. The reality is even more astonishing though, and if you have never heard this unforgettable music performed live (or even if you have), this should be an evening of revelations. The inspirational Corinna Niemeyer conducts an all-star line-up of singers, and rediscovers emotionally-charged 18th-century masterpieces by two of Mozart’s greatest friends: Joseph Haydn, and the brilliant, unfairly neglected composer Marianna Martines, whose family even helped out a young Haydn by letting him lodge in their attic!
