Britten War Requiem

Susanne Bernhard Soprano

Stuart Jackson Tenor

Benjamin Appl Baritone

RSNO Youth Chorus

Patrick Barrett Director, RSNO Youth Choruses

RSNO Chorus

Stephen Doughty Director, RSNO Chorus

‘My subject is War, and the pity of War.’ Benjamin Britten took sacred words and poetry of the First World War and combined them into a masterpiece that echoes down the decades – a timeless and profoundly moving exploration of man’s inhumanity to man, and an enduring symbol of reconciliation through art. True to Britten’s intentions, Thomas Søndergård has drawn world-class soloists from both Britain and Germany, joining the RSNO, its Chorus and Youth Chorus in a piece that’s never felt more relevant.

Sir Alexander & Lady Gibson Memorial Concert

In collaboration with Poppy Scotland
