The vocal ensemble Libro Coro is set to present the performance ‘Et lux perpetua’ on Sunday, March 22, at 8:30 p.m., at the Greek Evangelical Church in Piraeus. This concert will feature the iconic ‘Requiem in C minor’ by Luigi Cherubini, along with a musical prelude of two songs by Benjamin Britten. This performance marks a significant return for Libro Coro after their participation in a historic concert with the band Septicflesh at the Herodion Theatre, in collaboration with the Athens State Orchestra.

‘Requiem in C minor’ is recognized as a masterful composition that embodies a blend of tradition with innovation, offering a profound musical experience dedicated to the rest of souls, infused with deep humanity and religious reverence. The work is considered a pinnacle of global liturgical music, distinguished by its dramatic character and emotional depth. The concert aims to provide audiences with a moment of reflection and contemplation through the fusion of sacred and modern choral traditions.

This event presents an opportunity for the community to engage with significant musical heritage, reflecting on themes of loss, remembrance, and the human experience within the context of both personal tragedies and broader social struggles. It promises to be a moving and immersive experience for attendees, highlighting the transformative power of music in addressing these universal themes.
