GABRIEL FAURÉ REQUIEM
Fauré Cantique de Jean Racine
Mark Diamond, Baritone
El Sistema TX Symphony Youth Orchestra
October 20, 2024
We believe in the power of collaboration and community. On October 20th, we are excited to join forces with the inspiring El Sistema Symphony Youth Orchestra to present Fauré’s most popular masterwork, the Requiem. We invite singers from across Houston to unite with us and share the joy of performing this beloved work, a truly exhilarating experience.
El Sistema opens the concert and performs traditional and new works, followed by the timeless Fauré Requiem. Together, we will create a harmonious experience accompanied by rising star organist Grant Smith and the inspiring El Sistema students.
“El Sistema uses music instruction in ensembles to enhance the lives of young people in under-resourced communities and believes that learning music can set students on a path of self-discovery and improve life skills such as patience, persistence, and confidence. Our programs prepare expressive, resilient individuals who contribute to their communities. Beyond musical proficiency, we emphasize the personal growth and social connections that enrich students as artists and citizens.”
