Overview

When the esteemed Italian writer Alessandro Manzoni passed away in 1873, Giuseppe Verdi was deeply affected and composed his monumental Messa da Requiem in the writer's memory. The piece is not only a tribute to Manzoni but also a fusion of Verdi’s operatic brilliance, blending soaring melodies with profound spiritual depth.

This 2013 performance at the legendary Hollywood Bowl, conducted by Gustavo Dudamel, features world-renowned soloists Juliana Di GiacomoMichelle DeYoungVittorio Grigolo, and Ildebrando D’Arcangelo. The Los Angeles Philharmonic and Los Angeles Master Chorale elevate this experience, described by the Los Angeles Times as a "radical and wondrous rethinking" of Verdi’s masterwork.

The performance captures both the spiritual intensity and operatic drama that Verdi's Requiem is known for. In addition to the main event, the DVD includes a special bonus feature with an intimate look at Dudamel’s process, including interviews and rehearsals.
