Watch this performance of the dramatic “Dies irae” from Verdi’s Requiem as we mark Verdi's birthday on 10 October 1813.
Daniel Harding conducts the chorus and orchestra of the Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia. The performance was made in the spectacular surroundings of Rome’s Basilica di San Paolo fuori le Mura in 2024.

Completed in 1874, the Requiem sees Verdi apply all his skill in drama and characterisation to create a work at once deeply spiritual and thrillingy dramatic – and one of the most popular works in the whole choral repertoire. Here a world-class line-up of soloists joins forces with a conductor famed for his precision and power in what promises to be an unforgettable performance.
