Sabina Michael as Teresa Stolx and the voices of NIGEL ANTHONY
MARGARET ROBERTSON
JAMES THOMASON , DAVID TIMSON with the BBC SINGERS accompanied by WILFRID PARRY (piano)
Verdi's Requiem was written In 1874 to commemorate the death of the Italian poet and novelist Manzoni. The story behind the composition of this great masterpiece is as fascinating and human as the music itself. Bound up with It is Verdi's love for the Requiem's soprano, Teresa Stolz , a love which momentarily disturbed the equilibrium of the composer's enchanting wife.
Producer HALLAM TENNYSON
The music is taken from an LP recording of the Requiem conducted by HERBERT VON KARAJAN (Deutsche Grammophon)
(Joss Ackland is in ' Collaborators ' at the Duchess Theatre, London)
Next Sunday Riccardo Muti conducts a performance of the Requiem in the Colston Hatt, Bristol, as part of the 1973 Bath Festival: Radio 3, 6.0 pm
