On Friday, April 10, 2026, at 9:00 PM at the Church of S. Fermo Maggiore, the University of Verona Choir presents the Requiem for St. Francis, an event organized in collaboration between the University of Verona Choir, conducted by Marcello Rossi Corradini, and the University of Lausanne Choir, conducted by Fruzsina Szuromi.
The initiative is part of the celebrations for the eighth centenary of the death of St. Francis (1226 - 2026).
The concert will begin with medieval music, the monodic chant of the Missa pro Defunctis which includes the famous sequence "Dies Irae," attributed to the Franciscan Thomas of Celano, the saint's first biographer.
Following this, the performance of Requiem op. 9 by Maurice Duruflé from 1947 will take place, which draws on Gregorian themes.
