Duruflé Requiem

Anthony Blake Clark opens the concert with a salute to English composers, including Benjamin Britten and Edward Elgar.  Honoring Leonard Bernstein’s 100th birthday, Blake will lead the chorus in Bernstein’s beloved Chichester Psalms. The program also includes the music of Maurice Duruflé, highlighted by the original version of his Requiem, featuring internationally-acclaimed organist Jeremy Filsell and showcasing the magnificent organ in the historic St. Paul’s Episcopal Church.

A pre-concert Choral Conversation will be held at 2:00 pm inside the church.
