Great music again last Friday at LaVerdi, this time Verdi’s Requiem. They perform it every year around Remembrance day and it’s fascinating to compare how you remember last year’s version with the one you are hearing now .You compare the interpretation of the conductor, the choir’s performance, whether you thought last year’s soloists were better or not. At first I couldn’t remember anything but now after hearing it so many times I feel as if even I, not really musically literate, can make simple comparisons.
I love the fact that it is sung in Latin too : such a compact language and to my untrained ear, so musical.
It’ very beautiful
