Fauré Requiem

Lose yourself in Fauré's most enduring and beloved work.

Chief Conductor Umberto Clerici leads a program that begins in brightness and ends in serenity.

Maria Grenfell's Gaudete Fanfare sets the tone with brilliance and joy, before Katy Abbott's Fanfare for the Melancholy reflects on the quiet struggles of modern life.

At the heart of the program is Fauré's Requiem, featuring soprano Stacey Alleaume, baritone Christopher Richardson, and the Brisbane Chamber Choir Collective. Unlike the fire and fury of traditional requiems, Fauré's is gentle, luminous, and deeply human.

Even now, few works speak so clearly, or so tenderly.
