LA Opera on Air concludes its season on KUSC this weekend with the company's powerful Requiem of Giuseppe Verdi as performed in 2007 and conducted by Placido Domingo himself.

This performance was dedicated to legendary tenor Luciano Pavarotti and LA Opera's late Chief Operating Officer Edgar Baitzel.
Soloists in this performance are soprano Adrianne Pieczonka, mezzo-soprano Stephanie Blythe, tenor Arturo Chacón-Cruz and bass René Pape.
