Verdi’s Requiem returns to the Palau in one of the most anticipated performances of the season. Daniele Gatti, a master of the great vocal and symphonic repertoire, conducts this monumental work with his unmistakable signature: drama, tension, and a profound sense of musical architecture. On this occasion, the Orfeó Català—playing a leading role in a score that demands commitment, precision, and expressive power—will perform alongside the prestigious Staatskapelle Dresden in a first-rate alliance. An exceptional quartet of soloists —Eleonora Buratto, Elīna Garanča, Benjamin Bernheim, and Michele Pertusi— rounds out a concert that promises to be unforgettable. From the thunderous Dies irae to the final plea of the Libera me, an intense and moving experience that places the heart at the centre of Verdi’s emotional universe.
