Sydney Chamber Choir performs Paul Stanhope’s Requiem

After premiering the work to a standing ovation and glowing reviews last year, Sydney Chamber Choir is delighted to be presenting this contemporary masterpiece in Goulburn, one of regional NSW’s most vibrant musical centres. Interweaving poems by female writers, including Indigenous Australian poet Oodgeroo Noonuccal, Emily Dickinson and India’s Neela Nath Das, with the traditional Latin texts, Stanhope’s Requiem explores themes of consolation, connection to country, commemoration and life-affirming celebration.
