Victoria Requiem

  • St Augustine's Kilburn Kilburn Park Road London, England, NW6 5XB United Kingdom (map)

A choral service for All Souls (The Commemoration of All the Faithful Departed), including a performance from Tomas Luis de Victoria’s Requiem of 1605.

Victoria’s six-voice Missa pro defunctis (or Requiem) is one of the greatest choral compositions from any period, creating a mood – contemplative but never despairing. Here it is performed in its original setting, suitably sombre and in darkness lit only by candles.
