French conductor Marc Piollet is in Winnipeg this weekend to conduct the WSO in a performance of Verdi's Requiem. He stopped by the Classic 107 studio to talk with Morning Light host Michael Wolch.

It was a great conversation with Marc. The French music director has conducted operas featuring international stars like Anna Netrebko, Rolando Villazon and Roberto Alagna, to name a few.

 

 

The WSO, lead by Marc, performs Verdi's Requiem Saturday night, 8:00 PM at the Centennial Concert Hall.
