“I came to the candlelight Fauré Requiem because, although I am a rock and roll girl, Fauré was a favorite in my family growing up. I was absolutely blown away by the performance and venue, in fact I was moved to tears. The unexpected immediate segue from the violin piece into the requiem made my hair stand on end. Everything was just exquisite.”

Marie V.

“Although familiar with the piece, I had never experienced it in live performance, so was looking forward to an evening’s pleasure. However, to describe the concert as transportive and sublime would scarcely do it justice, as there was a collective sense in the audience that this event was truly special. For me, all the elements converged - leadership, musicianship, and ambiance - to create an unforgettable memory. More, please, and thank you.”

Lavender H.

“Faure Requiem was absolutely beautiful. I treated my partner with tickets for us and we were both blown away on how St.Josephs was decorated and how clear the music was. ”

Amadeus H.

“Faure's Requiem was phenomenal. When the choir walked out from the back of the church, I felt connected to something transcendent. How thrilling to have felt everyone else around me was probably feeling it too.”

Jennifer Z.

“We loved the Faure Requiem and were especially impressed with the rendition of Libera Me. I was also blown away by the Bach Chaconne performance, having never experienced that piece live before. It was incredible how one violin could produce a sound rivaling an entire string quartet in that space. The Co-Cathedral of St. Joseph was an amazing setting to experience these two pieces of music.”
