The Salem Chamber Orchestra opens with Mozart’s lovely Violin Concerto #3 in G Major, featuring the Orchestra’s Concert Master, Leonora Anop.  The Orchestra and Chorale will then combine to perform Mozart’s Requiem.  Shortly before his death at age 35, the very ill Mozart began composing a work that would become somewhat mysterious and controversial.  It was his stunning and powerful Requiem.  Mozart told his wife about strange feelings as he worked, as if perhaps the Requiem would be for him.  Mozart dies before completing it.
