The late, great Stephen Paulus’s transcendent and GRAMMY Award-winning Prayers and Remembrances, commissioned by True Concord, and the Mozart Requiem—the program with which True Concord made its New York debut at Lincoln Center, September 11, 2015.

On that same day, True Concord released its Far in the Heavens CD, with works by Paulus, including Prayers and Remembrances. That year, Far in the Heavens earned True Concord a GRAMMY nomination for Best Choral Performance.

Paulus, whom The New Yorker called “a bright, fluent inventor with a ready lyric gift,” held a long tradition of partnerships with Tucson and its many cultural institutions. Through his work he strove to inspire hope and light for the future.

Remembering Together: Tucson’s All Souls Procession brings 100,000 people together to honor and celebrate the lives of people we care about.

The Requiem, Mozart’s ultimate masterpiece, became even more universally known through its brilliant if fictionalized use in one of the greatest, most honored films of all time, Amadeus.
