Mozart Requiem and Haydn Cello
Concerto in C major (1st movement)
12th October 2014
This magnificent concert opened with the first
movement of Haydn’s
Cello Concerto
. The
soloist, Fifth Former Aaron Gruen,
demonstrated excellent technique and
performed with the musical intelligence of a
much older player. The St Edward’s Singers,
Chapel Choirs and a professional orchestra
then performed Mozart’s
Requiem
. The soloists
were former pupils Megan Baddeley, Rosalie
Warner, Benjamin Durrant and Edward Price
who all showed individual excellence but were
particularly well blended in the quartet
moments. The combined choirs packed the
stage and produced a thrilling sound. The
large audience was treated to an exciting
performance with some ambitious tempi
chosen by the conductor Neville Creed.
