Dudamel: Verdi Requiem

 

Gustavo Dudamel puts an intimate flourish on Verdi’s Requiem, the Los Angeles Times writes about Dudamel’s performance of Verdi’s Requiem at the Hollywood Bowl. “A page was turned and a new chapter begun in the maturation of a music director.” Dudamel is joined by a cast of high-class singers: Ildebrando D’Arcangelo, who regularly performs at La Scala, the Wiener Staatsoper, London’s Royal Opera or the Salzburg Festival; the upcoming star tenor Vittorio Grigolo, who regularly guests at La Scala, Covent Garden, and the MET; Michelle DeYoung, who performs with leading orchestras like the New York Philharmonic, Boston Symphony Orchestra, and Chicago Symphony Orchestra; and Julianna Di Giacomo, who regularly guests at the MET, the LA Opera and other international opera houses.
