Description
Mozart's Requiem has nothing to do with superficiality, it is all depth - this performance perfectly conveys it.
This is one of these classical pieces that almost everyone recognises on the spot. Even Fryderyk Chopin himself was delighted with the Requiem to such an extent that he ordered for it to be performed during his funeral Mass in the Parisian Church of La Madeleine. Thousands of pages have been written about the Requiem. About the mysterious commission, about the body of a young man exhausted by work and life.
From the memoirs of Benedikt Schack, a friend of the Mozart family, we learn that in December 1791 a sung rehearsal of fragments of the work was held. Apparently, after listening to the first bars of the Lacrimosa, Mozart burst into tears and put down the score. Eleven hours later, around one o'clock in the morning, he died.
