Join us to perform Mozart’s Requiem as part of a massed choir, sitting in the auditorium of Leeds Grand Theatre and accompanied by the Orchestra and Chorus of Opera North and professional soloists.
Opera North’s Chorus Master, Tony Kraus, will be our conductor for the event. During the afternoon, there will be a piano rehearsal followed by a rehearsal with the Orchestra and Chorus of Opera North. The day will culminate in a public performance that evening.
You don’t need to be an experienced choral singer to take part, but you do need to be able to read music – or to be able to pick up music by ear and follow along with a score.
