Description
Three key works of the requiem literature are brought together here: Brahms' Ein Deutsches Requiem Opus 45, Mozart's Requiem KV 626 and the Requiem in C minor by Luigi Cherubini, which was composed in 1817 for the church funeral service for Louis XVI, who was executed during the French Revolution in 1793.
The Stuttgart Chamber Choir, the Hofkapelle Stuttgart, the Klassische Philharmonie Stuttgart and the Stuttgart Baroque Orchestra will perform under the direction of Frieder Bernius. The soloists are Julia Borchert, Vasiljka Jezovsek, Claudia Schubert, Marcus Ullmann and Michael Volle.
"Three big hitters of the requiem repertoire, varying in style, in one set. All are performed with considerable polish" – BBC Music Magazine
