FREE MOZART CONCERT IN THE CATHEDRAL





A unique event for music enthusiasts will take place tomorrow Thursday the 5th in the Metropolitan Cathedral (in front of the Plaza de Mayo). The Mozart’s Requiem in D Minor will be played by the Public Radio & Television Orchestra. It’s the perfect concert in the perfect place. An experience named “Mozart for everybody” and a melody which transcends generations, styles and musical tastes.

Just 6 blocks away from our Hostel Colonial, with free entrance, this Thursday the 5th, at 7PM, the orchestra conducted by maestro Marcelo Zurlo, will play this wonderful masterpiece of the Austrian composer. The Requiem is the last work of one of the most famous musical geniuses of our history. The event will have the presence of female soloists Laura Rizzo (soprano) and May Hemmingsen (mezzosoprano), the male soloists Fermín Prieto (tenor) and Lucas Debevec Mayer (bass), and the coral group of the Lagun Onak Association, conducted by maestro Miguel Pesce.



The Mozart’s Requiem is on the most renowned ecclesiastic works of all times. When the musician suddenly passed away, the requiem was completed until the end of the “Dies Irae” sequence, while the rest was sketched in different stages of development until Franz Xaver Süssmayr concluded it. The fact that a requiem, casually, was the last work of Mozart, surrounds the masterpiece with a mysterious and misfortune halo.

For music lovers, for those who want to enjoy an unforgettable experience, the Mozart’s Requiem in D Minor in the Buenos Aires Cathedral is something special. If you’re visiting our city, you should save some time for this magic moment.
