The Richmond Choral Society presents the Yizkor Requiem, sung in Hebrew, Latin and English, a quest for spiritual roots that seeks common ground within the rich Judeo-Christian tradition using the memorial services of the Jewish and Catholic faiths.
The program begins with a pre-concert lecture by composer Thomas Beveridge at 3:30 p.m., and the concert starts at 4 p.m.
Markus Compton will direct the 50+voice ensemble and full orchestra. Benjamin Warschawski of Chicago will be the cantor, Anne O’Byrne will sing soprano, and Gabrielle Maes will sing mezzo-soprano.
