Opera Australia presents Mozart’s Requiem at City Recital Hall

Experience an unforgettable evening of music as Opera Australia’s exceptional Orchestra and Chorus perform Mozart’s Requiem in D Minor on Saturday 4 October 2025 at Sydney’s City Recital Hall.

Internationally acclaimed for their artistry, the Opera Australia Orchestra and Chorus will bring this monumental Mass for the Dead to life. Packed with dramatic intensity, the performance features the fiery Dies Irae and the heart-wrenching Lacrimosa – some of Mozart’s most recognisable and emotionally stirring compositions. Written during the composer’s final days, the Requiem stands as one of the most influential works in classical music, shrouded in a history of mystery and intrigue.

A rich programme of musical highlights

Alongside the Requiem, the evening will include a carefully curated selection of orchestral masterpieces. Audiences will enjoy The Marriage of Figaro Overture, Tchaikovsky’s spirited Russian Dance, and other virtuoso pieces designed to showcase the immense talent of Opera Australia’s celebrated Concertmaster, violinist Matthieu Arama, as well as conductors Tahu Matheson and Paul Fitzsimons.
