Chamber Choir Ireland and the Irish Chamber Orchestra join forces for Mozart’s final masterpiece.

Mozart’s unfinished, yet emotionally charged Requiem was composed on the edge of consciousness.  Led by Thomas Zehetmair, Chamber Choir Ireland and the Irish Chamber Orchestra perform this profoundly moving epic, brimming with drama, hope and redemption.

Feel how Mozart grapples with the mystery of death willing his final creation into life with his last breaths – experience the heartache and the genius.
