The Dutch première of Rufus Wainwright’s Dream Requiem performed by the Netherlands Philharmonic. What a treat! With André de Ridder as conductor and Wainwright himself as guest of honour giving an on-stage interview before the concert.
Première of Rufus Wainwright's Dream Requiem
The Netherlands Philharmonic is accompanied by actor Carice van Houten as narrator, soprano Rachel Willis-Sørensen and no fewer than three choirs: Toonkunstkoor Amsterdam and Studentenkoor Amsterdam (both led by Boudewijn Jansen) and the Nieuw Amsterdams Jeugdkoor (led by Anaïs de la Morandais).
