KMFA’s Chris Johnson will host this special program, which will include a recording of the September 16, 2016 performance of Mozart Requiem Undead by Panoramic Voices (formerly Texas Choral Consort) along with Austin-based vocal ensemble Convergence. The broadcast will also include the world premiere of Tired Tropes for Battered Souls by Caleb Burhans, which was commissioned by Texas Performing Arts and KMFA 89.5.

In 2014, Texas Performing Arts and partners Golden Hornet Project and Fusebox Festival presented Mozart Requiem Undead to open the Fusebox Festival at the French Legation Museum. Ten composers were commissioned to rework various movements of Mozart’s Requiem Mass. The only stipulation was that the composers had to keep the vocal parts as originally written by Mozart.
