Damrau And Finley Sing Brahms With The Philharmonia In London
The Philharmonia Orchestra performs Brahms’ A German Requiem at the Royal Festival Hall in London on Sunday, November 29, 2026, with Simone Young conducting.
Diana Damrau and Gerald Finley are the soloists, two of the most admired singers in the world in a work that asks everything of its voices. Brahms wrote the Requiem not for the dead but for the living who mourn them, and in the Royal Festival Hall, with a cast of this calibre, it becomes one of the great concert occasions of the season.
The Philharmonia’s Southbank Centre residency puts the orchestra at the centre of London’s musical life, and a Requiem with singers of this standing is the kind of night the hall was built for.
We Speak Media will be watching the London concert closely, and we will bring readers the full story from the performance.

The Human Appeal Winter Comedy Tour reaches The New Bingley Hall in Birmingham on Sunday, December 20, 2026, as the Muslim Comedy Takeover closes its twelfth year of touring in aid of orphaned children.
Guz Khan, Tez Ilyas, Kae Kurd, Aatif Nawaz and Riaad Moosa share the bill on a tour that has become one of the fixtures of the British comedy winter, playing arena scale rooms across the country. The Birmingham date closes a leg that also calls at Glasgow, Edinburgh, Newcastle, Sheffield and Manchester.
Comedy for a cause at this scale is its own kind of show, part stand up spectacular and part community gathering, and the Bingley Hall is ready for a full house.
We Speak Media will be watching the Birmingham night closely, and we will bring readers the full story from the show.
