“AMADEUS” – IN CONCERT WITH ORCHESTRA AND CHOIR
Lavish balls and breakneck carriage rides, manuscript scores brought to life in quiet chambers and musical ecstasy on the grand opera stage: the feature-length film “Amadeus” from 1984 which won eight Oscars shows the life of the musical genius in all its fullness – and, in the end, his death. In its usual style, the City Light Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Kevin Griffiths, performs Mozart’s music live, including the dramatically heated Symphony No. 25 in G minor at the beginning of “Amadeus”. Excerpts from choral works such as Mozart’s Mass in C minor or the Requiem are also guaranteed to be sung with excellence thanks to the Zurich Sing-Akademie.
