New World Symphony returns with another bucket list performance at the Adrienne Arsht Center.
Three of the world’s most celebrated singers—Christine Goerke, Ian Bostridge and Roderick Williams—join forces for Benjamin Britten’s War Requiem. Pairing Latin text with poems by WWI soldier Wilfred Owen, this pacifist masterpiece uses orchestra, soloists, choirs and organ to grand effect.
“If you’re searching for a piece imbued with timeless meaning, one that carries particular poignancy during our own war-torn era, look no further.” – NPR
