Requiem

Album by Giuseppe Verdi & Kazimierz Kord & Chór Filharmonii Narodowej & Orkiestra Symfoniczna Filharmonii Narodowej & Teresa Żylis‐Gara & Krystyna Szostek-Radkowa & Wiesław Ochman & Leonard Andrzej Mróz

Messa da Requiem is a requiem mass by Italian composer Giuseppe Verdi, completed in 1874. Scored for soloists, chorus and orchestra, it blends operatic drama with liturgical form through dramatic choral writing, contrasting solo passages and vivid orchestral colour, and occupies a distinctive place among Verdi's late works as a rare sacred composition that applies his theatrical techniques to large-scale sacred music.
