Westminster Symphonic Choir joins the New York Philharmonic to perform the New York premiere of Christopher Rouse's Requiem.

Christopher Rouse is one of America's most prominent composers of orchestral music. His works have won a Pulitzer Prize and a Grammy Award, as well as election to the prestigious American Academy of Arts and Letters. Rouse has created a body of work perhaps unequalled in its emotional intensity. The Baltimore Sun has written: "When the music history of the late 20th century is written, I suspect the explosive and passionate music of Rouse will loom large."
