Thames Philharmonic Choir makes its annual visit to Cadogan Hall with a performance of Brahms’s German Requiem. Music Director Harry Bradford describes the Requiem as “a message of consolation and hope to the living, a piece like no other. Containing some of the most beautiful melodies ever composed, the piece is a tour de force for choir and orchestra alike. It will be paired with the Tragic Overture and the Alto Rhapsody, creating a fantastic celebration of one of history’s greatest musical minds.”
