Herreweghe conducts Dvořák's Requiem

The month of November is the ideal time to remember those we miss. Antonín Dvořák’s moving Requiem offers profound solace, reaching straight to the heart. A subtle chromatic motif reminds the listener of death’s omnipresence. The work radiates a brave sadness, avoiding superficial melancholy or tragic gloom. This great choral work is an unjustly overlooked pearl. Philippe Herreweghe, with the Antwerp Symphony Orchestra and Collegium Vocale, previously performed it, proving Dvořák’s Requiem is the ultimate music of comfort.
