2013 marks the 200th anniversary of the birth of Verdi. Warner Classics marks this with a new recording by one of our most respected conductors, Antonio Pappano, and his orchestra in Rome, the Orchestra e Coro dell'Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia.

Apart from the famous Requiem, Verdi's less familiar choral works are often overlooked -- but these works have an imaginative power and musical beauty that make them as worthy as many of Verdi's more familiar operas.
