SLIPPERY ROCK, Pa. - The life of the late Fred Rogers will be celebrated here next month with an 11-movement composition titled Memoriam: A Requiem for Mr. Rogers.

The genial Rogers became famous around the world as the sweater-wearing host of the PBS program Mister Rogers' Neighborhood. He died last year.

The one-hour piece will be presented by a 25-piece orchestra accompanied by a 65-member choir.

It includes English, Hebrew and Latin lyrics, poetry and dramatic readings.

I've decided I'm going. Anyone else want to come?

    I heard a “teaser” of the Requiem for Mr Rogers on NPR 3/2/04 and desire to obtain a recording of the entire performance. Is it or will it be available? I am involved with choral music performance. Thanks.
