Description:
The Blacksburg Master Chorale and Virginia Tech School of Performing Arts presents Mozart's "Requiem" on Sunday, March 30, 2025 at the Moss Arts Center at Virginia Tech.

The Virginia Tech Choirs, Virginia Tech Philharmonic Orchestra, and the Blacksburg Master Chorale come together to present one of the most well-known and glorious works for choir and orchestra, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's "Requiem," along with a performance of Ola Gjielo's "Dark Night of the Soul."

Commissioned by a mysterious stranger and left incomplete at the time of the composer's death, W.A. Mozart's Requiem Mass (K. 626) is a longtime favorite of musicians and audiences the world over.

And Gjielo's Dark Night of the Soul, inspired by the grace and passion of a medieval poem by St. John of the Cross, is an extended work that offers intense dramatic exchanges between choir, piano, and string quartet.

Join us for this unique performance that combines three groups in the grand Anne and Ellen Fife Theatre of Virginia Tech's Moss Arts Center. Virginia Tech faculty member Mathias Elmer will conduct the performance, leading the Virginia Tech Philharmonic; the VT choirs and Blacksburg Master Chorale will be prepared by Virginia Tech faculty members Dwight Bigler and Dominique Gonzales.

Tickets are $25.00 for general admission and $10.00 for Virginia Tech students, high school students and youth.

The Blacksburg Master Chorale is a non-profit organization dedicated to bringing quality, affordable musical performances to the New River Valley and surrounding communities.

The Blacksburg Master Chorale engages audiences and patrons with musically vivid performances of classical and traditional choral works. We intend to "inflame the coldest heart" to experience the full beauty and intensity of this rich music with works both new and old, spanning the history of choral music.
