Concert
The hour-long work was penned by the musician Lee Schornoz, who lives in Bern and was born in Freiburg. Schornoz laid the foundation stone for Requiem Londinium in 2016 in London, Clapham Junction. He composed, arranged and produced the album in an electronic version, which will be released at the premiere of the live version. Manfred Jungo from Freiburg further developed and arranged Schornoz' work for the live version. The choral scores have been revised by Stéphane Cosandey.
The funeral mass will be performed in front of the audience by conductor Frédéric Zosso and his symphony orchestra Ouroboros as well as Stéphane Cosandey's 30-strong vocal ensemble TiramiSu. The opera voice is carried by Croatian-born Nikolina Pinko. Jean-Charles Gonzalez is the cantor. The music is framed by an e-band with the well-known Freiburg guitarists Julien Menth, Sandro Schmutz, Thomas Jenny, Christophe Egger, Joel Martinho and the drummer Adrian Mahler.
