About This Event

Rapha毛l Pichon and his exciting ensemble Pygmalion present an alternative vision of Mozart鈥檚 Requiem, famously left incomplete at the composer鈥檚 death. Tonight鈥檚 reimagining swells the popular completion by Mozart鈥檚 pupil S眉ssmayr with additional pieces to create a compelling alternative sequence.

There will be no interval

Sandrine Piau will be performing in tonight鈥檚 Prom, Prom 69: Mozart鈥檚 Requiem, replacing Erin Morley, who is sadly unwell.
