Classic hits
In a concert featuring classical hits, Mozart, Bach, and Beethoven—the Great Three of classical music—cannot be missing. According to old folk wisdom, Bach is the ultimate for the mind, Beethoven for the heart, and Mozart for the soul. Together with other 'evergreens,' including Smetana's The Moldau and Rachmaninoff's Vocalise , the music of Bach, Beethoven, and Mozart forms the core of this concert. A special part of the program is Fauré's Requiem , sung by the National Women's Youth Choir. This heavenly, comforting music consistently ranks high in classical music lists.
Radio Philharmonic Orchestra and the National Women's Youth Choir
The most beloved classical masterpieces are performed by the Radio Philharmonic Orchestra and the National Women's Youth Choir. The Radio Philharmonic Orchestra is one of the most versatile orchestras in the Netherlands and a key pillar of The Sunday Morning Concert. The National Women's Youth Choir features the crème de la crème of young Dutch singers aged 16 to 30. The choir frequently performs music from 1500 to the present day on professional stages at home and abroad. This morning, the two ensembles are led by the inspiring conductor Sander Teepen.
