Unfinished Requiem - W. A. Mozart 

Amazing conception of this extraordinary work. Soloist as the choir fantastic. I must say that I have a very similar idea about this kind of performance. Bravi tutti. And the conductor: SUUUUPEEEER!!!!!!

Fantastic - thank you.

Es una puesta en escena espectacular si tomamos en cuenta el silencio, viene toda esta música tan perfecta, se puede sentir la última noche en el lacrimosa, bajo la luz de las velas, después solo el silencio eterno. Que increíble.

One of the greatest songs ever written by the greatest composer who ever lived.

it is wonderfully performed this way.

Maravilhoso. Bravo

Прекрасно !

Excellent performance despite the place they moved was a bit tiny. I loved their faces and the way of looking

супер!!!

Mozart's influence on Sussmeyers cannot be understated. In fact Wolfgang, prodded, made fun of this assistant, Why? Because he liked him or he would not of been hired. Someone once said " we make fun of those we love most.There was assuredly mountains of discussions about this commission that is not written down. Franz has conveyed the best he could Mozart's intention with ALL HIS musical flaws that Mozart knew about. So he trusted him Right. As much as I love reading Richard Maunders book ( I have two copies) His attempt to finish it does not set my teeth on fire. A pastor of a church once said " because you come to church does not make you a Christian like wise if you stand in your garage on a Sunday does not make you a car either" Obviously it is the same with musicians. Sussmeyers flaws which Mozart was wholly aware of still confided in him. Yes, there may be a scrap or two of Mozart's discarded papers but he did not hand them over because they did not belong or were for something else. Do not get me wrong, I will read and listen to any attempts on try to get closer than Franz did to completing this most excruciating work. You will know it when someone gets a little closer to Mozart's intent but it won't be found in the sheet music, you will hear it and know it.

It's interesting how the Amen fugue fragment was omitted

Sad that Mozart could never performed this

I'm a bit confuse. If I may ask, Did Mozart wrote all that part of the symphony or just the Requiem aeternam and the 8 bars of lacrimosa part? It would help my reseach abou his life ty

Unfortunately, the last part of the trombone solo, in "Tuba Mirum", was cut (or maybe was not in this edition).

Love the tempo!

beautiful performance.. (un)fortunately I could NOT watch the absurd theatrics.

What Is with the set Up?

What is the hymn in the middle of the Recordare and the Confutatis?

❤

There has been speculation if the Introit is actually fully orchestrated by Mozart: the ostinato figure during the second "Requiem Aeternam" exclamation after Exaudi presents inconsistencies with the way Mozart developed it earlier, not to mention there is a change in the ink used in the manuscript. The Kyrie is also considered to not be fully orchestrated by Mozart.

❤מעולה

En gusto no hay nada escrito, dicho o firmado. Algunos les gusta y otros no...bueno. Podemos hacer la comparación. (abuso del canto litúrgico???) gracias.

It should be performed only this way. Who would ever dare to "complete" Michelangelo's Pietà Rondanini?

..... what....

With all due respect, this was supposed to be the music for an Holy Catholic Mass of Requiem, not some show...

I really don't understand this grotesque staging. I don't see the point, it has nothing to do with the score or its context, it distracts and embarrasses. The tempo is correct, I like the agogics of the choir. And then, enough with "luzeat" ​​instead of "luceat" or "sparghens" instead of "spargens". You can't hear it.

This just makes me cringe..a lot.

Music performance is excellent. All that "acting" nonsense is highly distracting.

Overall, the singing and the playing were excellent. Part of the text was literally butchered. The symbolism was too primitive. I would have enjoyed the music more if I just listened to it and not watch it. I also don't see any rationale for switching parts, like putting Hostias right after Recordare. I believe in scholarship and research but after a point it becomes pointless to keep "innovating."
