NSO: Stanford 100 National Symphony Orchestra Gerhard Markson conductor Máire Flavin soprano Sharon Carty mezzo-soprano James Way tenor John Molloy bass National Symphony Chorus David Young choral director Stanford Requiem Former NSO Principal Conductor Gerhard Markson returns to conclude the NSO’s centenary commemorations of Dublin-born Charles Villiers Stanford’s death with one of his crowning glories: the monumental and moving Requiem. Admired by Verdi and cast on the grandest of scales, it is a heartfelt and tender work of involving intimacy and blazing faith in which Stanford’s mastery of drama, opera, song and orchestration come triumphantly together.
