RPS Film of the Verdi Requiem Workshop

Tonbridge Philharmonic is proud to be working with the Royal Philharmonic Society (RPS) to promote the revival of amateur music making post-pandemic.

The RPS and TPS hosted a Verdi Requiem Choral Workshop in May 2022. Guest soprano Anna Patalong joined us for this event. To our delight, Anna and her husband, Benedict Nelson, Baritone, agreed to perform the work with us in our Verdi Requiem concert on November 19th. RPS have included a section about the TPS workshop on their website here, including including a short film of the day.
