Sir Simon Rattle conducts Britten’s “War Requiem”

Benjamin Britten’s War Requiem has a unique place in the history of music. Rather than an abstract, liturgical work, it directly conveys the horrors and devastating grief unleashed by war. In 2013, the year in which the 100th anniversary of Britten’s birth was celebrated, Simon Rattle performed the Requiem for the first time with the Berliner Philharmoniker. In addition to the Rundfunkchor Berlin, the singers included an outstanding ensemble of soloists.
