Richard Strauss Symphonic Metamorphoses
Maurice Duruflé Requiem op. 9

Soloists: Susann Vent-Wunderlich and Jan-Friedrich Eggers
Conductor: Christopher Lichtenstein
With: Osnabrück Youth Choir and Cathedral Choir

With the famous funeral march from the Eroica , Beethoven creates an unforgettable atmosphere of seriousness and dignity. It is one of the most powerful expressions of grief and loss in the history of music. Richard Strauss transforms musical themes in his Symphonic Metamorphoses and draws the listener into a profound musical journey that moves between gloomy darkness and shining light. Maurice Duruflé's Requiem combines Gregorian chant with impressionistic soundscapes and creates a unique, meditative atmosphere. With its delicate, almost floating harmonies and the full power of the orchestra and choir, it transports the audience to a place of reflection and peace.
