| Royal Albert Hall, London, Kensington Gore, London SW7 2AP, United Kingdom Sunday 10-Nov-13 07:00pm BBC Symphony Orchestra / Bychkov ‘My subject is War, and the pity of War.’ Wilfred Owen In his War Requiem, Benjamin Britten placed the poetry of Wilfred Owen into dark and often ironic confrontation with the words of the Requiem Mass. This deeply moving and powerful work, written for the consecration of Coventry Cathedral after its destruction in the Second World War, remains as relevant today as ever. Semyon Bychkov conducts the BBC Symphony Orchestra, massed choirs and a cast of superb soloists in a performance that marks Britten’s 100th anniversary year, on Remembrance Sunday in an iconic building whose association with remembrance goes back nearly a century. Tickets £8 - 36. | ||
