An unfinished masterpiece, a musical testament, a timeless sacred composition that transcends the religious context – there is no shortage of superlatives to describe Mozart’s Requiem. When he died on 5 December 1791, the composer had finished the Introït and the Kyrie and established a large proportion of the content for the following five numbers, from the Dies Irae to the Confutatis.

 

This work has since given rise to countless theories, a host of unfinished pages and some splendid interpretations above all; it compels both audience and performers, reaching us almost intact in the form left behind by Mozart. As if these last notes, from the dying composer’s still-raised pen, were all the more precious.
