Distinguished Concerts International New York (DCINY) presents Verdi’s Messa da Requiem, a monumental work for chorus, soloists and orchestra, replete with intense drama and gloriously beautiful melodies. The composer’s only large-scale work not written for the stage, the Requiem stands in stature and artistry alongside Verdi’s great operatic masterpieces. DCINY Artistic Director and Principal Conductor Jonathan Griffith leads the Distinguished Concerts Singers International, a majestic force of 400 voices, comprised of outstanding choirs from seven states as well as the U.K., Canada and Denmark, and the Distinguished Concerts Orchestra. DCINY is delighted to welcome back acclaimed soloists: soprano Penelope Shumate; mezzo-soprano Claudia Chapa; tenor John Pickle; and baritone Christopher Job. Verdi’s Messa da Requiem will be performed on Sunday, May 24 at 8:30pm at Stern Auditorium, Carnegie Hall.
