College Park, MD—The University of Maryland (UMD) School of Music’s Concert Choir will join the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra in three performances of Benjamin Britten’s profound and deeply affecting anti-war masterpiece, The War Requiem on Thursday, November 14, 2013 at 8 pm and Friday, November 15, 2013 at 8 pm in the Joseph Meyerhoff Symphony Hall and Saturday, November 16, 2013 at 8 pm at the Music Center at Strathmore.
The performances celebrate the 100th anniversary of the composer’s birth on November 22, 1913. The combined force of the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra plus two choirs and three soloists will deliver Britten’s powerful masterwork that lends humanity to anti-war sentiment and remembers the fallen. “We are honored to be part of a performance so meaningful and moving,” said Edward Maclary, director of Choral Activities at UMD. “It is a privilege to share the stage with the BSO for the centerpiece of their 2013-2014 season.”
