All the emotions, feelings and intensity that classical music can awaken are experienced with this masterpiece by Giuseppe Verdi. Composed in 1873 in memory of his friend and compatriot, the famous novelist Alessandro Manzoni, the Requiem was sung for the first time in the church of San Carlo in Milan in 1874. Its success was immediate and enormous, being performed at La Scala and throughout Europe. The Requiem is an exercise full of force and vigor, requiring a large orchestra, four soloists, and a large choir. The Orquestra Simfònica de Barcelona i Nacional de Catalunya (OBC) and Orfeó Català, under the baton of Ludovic Morlot, put their talent at the service of this great piece at Barcelona's L'Auditori.
