Opera Southwest Presents: The New Mexico Symphonic Chorus

Mozart – Mass in C Minor, K. 427
Symphony No. 40 in G Minor, K. 550

(Sung in Latin and performed in the original language)
Two pillars of Mozart’s mature style: one sacred, one symphonic.
Modeled on the grandeur of Bach’s Mass in B Minor and the Salzburg ceremonial tradition, Mozart’s Mass in C Minor blends contrapuntal rigor with operatic brilliance. Though unfinished, it stands among the most exalted sacred works of the Classical era. Paired with the storm-lit urgency of the G Minor Symphony, this program reveals the expressive breadth of Mozart’s late style.
Featuring soloists Lindsay Ohse, Amanda Crider, Bernard Holcomb, and Javier Ortiz.
