MOZART’S LAST YEAR Masterpieces from 1791

On Sunday, May 23, 2027, the Fairfax Symphony Orchestra presents “Mozart’s Last Year: Masterpieces from 1791” at the Center for the Arts at George Mason University. This immersive concert experience, narrated by Bill Barclay, guides the audience through the final, remarkably creative year of Mozart’s life, woven together with excerpts from his personal letters. Under the baton of music director Christopher Zimmerman, the program features the Overture to *The Magic Flute*, the Clarinet Concerto performed by FSO Principal Clarinet Patrick Morgan, and the hauntingly unfinished Requiem (made famous in the film *Amadeus*), among other works. The Washington Master Chorale Chamber Chorus, led by Artistic Director Thomas Colohan, joins for the choral selections. Before the concert, attendees can deepen their understanding at a 3:00 PM pre-concert talk with Christopher Zimmerman and special guests.
