Requiem Verdi – St Petersburg

“We were having dinner with Maestro Gergiev on the opening night of Aida last year, when Julie came up with this idea that we are now bringing to life a year later: to tell a story of lightness while navigating the emotion-filled waters of this extraordinary score, and to have a blindfolded choir and a child suspended to a myriad of light bulbs, flying high above the heads of the soloists, over the orchestra pit, and into the dreams of the spectators.” Daniele Finzi Pasca
