Mozart was 35 years old when he was composing his Requiem. The story of his life appeals to the imagination and the mystery always hangs around his end of life. In films, many try to get closer to the soul of the genius. But we feel his presence most strongly in his music. In the hands and voices of young musicians, his spirit comes even closer.

Under the direction of Richard Egarr, the Codarts Choir and Symphony Orchestra will perform W. A. Mozart’s great masterpiece, his Requiem in D minor. After almost 7 years of the last collaboration with Laurenscantorij and the Codarts String Orchestra, Codarts, Laurens Vocaal and the Vocal Department of Codarts join forces to perform one of the best-known and largest symphonic-coral works ever written at a unique location such as the Laurenskerk Rotterdam, a pearl in the cultural, historical and social landscape of the city.
