Special Notes for Verdi's Requiem
This massive choral work benefits from slightly elevated seating to appreciate the full forces. The Gallery and Lower Balcony provide ideal perspectives to experience both the orchestra and chorus in perfect balance. For those wanting to focus on Muti's legendary conducting technique, main floor seats closer to the stage (Rows K-Q) are worth the premium.
