The Flint Symphony Chorus joins FSO for this concert of masterworks that pays homage to one of the most celebrated composers in history. In the final performance of the season, the combined ensembles will render the last piece Mozart ever composed — or nearly. After his death at 35, the piece was completed by one of his peers. A funeral rite for the dead, Mozart’s Requiem is also a representation of vitality, the young composer having given life to the piece with his final breaths. The Overture to Don Giovanni, which opens the concert, nods to the great success of Mozart’s work during his lifetime, and the final serenade, which was published posthumously, to his enduring eminence long after.
