Music@Wesley presents REQUIEM by John Rutter
to
Wesley Church at Frederica 6520 Frederica Rd., Saint Simons Island, Georgia 31522
On Sunday, November 2, 2014, 7:00 p.m., a community choir and orchestra conducted by Christopher Goodson will present a special All Saints Service of music featuring the REQUIEM by John Rutter.
The REQUIEM by John Rutter is a beautiful and popular musical adaptation of the Requiem Mass for the Dead (Missa pro defunctis) which includes both Latin and English texts. This composition is presented as part of a special All Saints Service, a time of remembrance and reflection for those who have passed on.
The community choir will present this concert accompanied by orchestra members from the Jacksonville Symphony Orchestra, other local musicians, soprano soloist, and organ. We are excited to welcome Kayo Ishimaru, principal harpist with the Jacksonville Symphony Orchestra; Kayo has previously performed the Rutter REQUIEM in England with the composer conducting.
Admission is free and open to the public. A love offering will be taken to assist Music@Wesley, which will help provide future services of music for the community.
