Review: Cannibal Panda perform Mozart's "Dies Irae" in D Minor

In the last few weeks Cannibal Panda (the University project I am part of) have been working on a contemporary version of Mozart's "Dies Irae" for our first performance assessment. Well, yesterday on the 30th November 2011, was the performance!
