The Island Chamber Singers will perform Brahms signature work, A German Requiem, on March 27 and 29 at Amelia Plantation Chapel. The singers will be accompanied by a 12-piece Chamber Orchestra.
Originally written in German and composed of scriptures from both the Old and New Testaments, the chorus will sing an English score and be led by Founder and Director Dr. Jane Lindberg. Featured soloists are Soprano Robyn Marie Lamp and Baritone David Scheininger.
Requiems usually follow the Order of the Mass and focus on the souls of the dead, but Brahms, who began writing the Requiem soon after his mothers death in 1865, focused on scriptures that bring comfort to the living. Probably the most famous piece in the work is the Psalm How Lovely is Thy Dwelling Place.
Concerts will take place at the Amelia Plantation Chapel, 36 Bowman Road, Amelia Island, on Friday, November 6, at 7 pm, and Sunday, November 8, at 3 pm. An opening night reception will be held in the Fellowship Hall immediately following Friday evening's performance.
