79. Duruflé Requiem: The Choir of Merton College, Olivia Warburton, Benson Wilson & Rebecca McNaught
26 October 2019, 4:30pm - 5:30pm
The Choir of Merton College, one of Oxford’s leading chapel choirs, performs Duruflé’s wonderful Requiem, alongside short works by Judith Weir and our Associate Composer Cheryl Frances-Hoad. This concert is a popular tradition of the final day of the Festival. We are delighted that the Choir and their Director Benjamin Nicholas will be joined by Olivia Warburton, who so impressed at the finals of this year's Young Artist Platform, and Benson Wilson, winner of this year's Kathleen Ferrier Awards.
