Austin composer Peter Stopschinski premieres choral work
Texas Choral Consort is set to premiere a new piece by Austin composer Peter Stopschinski who recently won the Austin Critics’ Table Award for Outstanding Original Composition. Stopschinski used the “Lacrymosa” movement from the Mozart Requiem as inspiration for his new choral work.
Also on the program for Saturday’s concert, Texas Choral Consort takes on two powerhouse works of the choral canon — Mozart’s Requiem and Fauré’s Requiem. Saturday’s “Out of the Silence” for orchestra and piano by William Grant Still is also on the program.
“Requiem Works By Fauré, Mozart, Still and Stopschinski”
8 p.m. Saturday
Northwest Hills United Methodist Church, 7050 Village Center Dr.
$20 ($15 seniors and student). Tickets available at the door.
