Verdi Requiem rehearsals in St Denis

​On 3 July 2019, the Monteverdi Choir and Orchestre Révolutionnaire et Romantique led by John Eliot Gardiner performed Verdi’s Messa da Requiem at the annual Saint-Denis festival.

After a successful European tour last autumn, the Monteverdi Choir, ORR, and John Eliot Gardiner revisited Verdi’s masterpiece in a performance at the Saint-Denis Festival, which in 2019 celebrated its 50th anniversary. The Monteverdi ensembles were at full strength for this concert, with over 130 musicians taking to the stage.
