The Seafarer’s Requiem: The Philharmonic Choir of the Newfoundland Symphony Orchestra presents The Seafarer’s Requiem at 3:30pm on May 10, 2026. The Seafarer's Requiem is a Celtic and classical fusion that combines the Requiem Mass and seafarer songs with tales of true stories taken from archives and documentaries about mariners and the people they leave behind.  Composed by Mary Knickle, The Seafarer's Requiem is a profoundly haunting piece. It was written to honour those who have lost their lives at sea, be they: fishermen, solo sailors or naval personnel, and those left on land. Join us on May 10, 2026, for an afternoon concert at St. Andrew’s Church (the Kirk). Doors open at 3pm for a 3:30pm start time. Purchasing tickets in advance is recommended, online at https://holyhearttheatre.com/ or by phone: 709-579-4424.
