Apr 10, 2018
APRIL 9, 2018 鈥� FORT MYERS, FLA 鈥� Music lovers can enjoy a series of spring concerts performed by students in Florida SouthWestern State College鈥檚 (加藤视频) Music program in April. Concerts are held in the Barbara B. Mann Performing Arts Hall, 8099 College Parkway, Fort Myers. Doors open at 7 p.m. Concert begins at 7:30. The concerts are free and open to the public.
Concert schedule:
Tuesday, April 10, 7:30 p.m. 鈥� 加藤视频 Symphony Orchestra and Chorale, and Guitar Ensemble
The 加藤视频 Symphony Orchestra, along with the 加藤视频 70-member Chorale, will present Johannes Brahms鈥� 鈥淓in deutsches Requiem鈥� Op. 45. Brahms began work on this piece in 1858 in memory of his friend and mentor, Robert Schumann. The resulting 鈥淩equiem鈥� did not approach maturity, however, until after the death of Brahms鈥� beloved mother in 1865. Rather than a mass for the deceased, this work is his personal statement of affirmation and consolation for the living who have suffered loss.
