Mozart Requiem
Album by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart & English Chamber Orchestra & Benjamin Britten
The Requiem in D minor, K. 626, is a requiem mass by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, composed in 1791. Scored for choir, soloists and orchestra, its austere choral writing, dramatic contrasts and rich orchestration reflect late Classical sacred style, and it occupies a significant place as the composer's final, unfinished work that was completed posthumously and is frequently performed in the choral repertoire.
First released: 24th June 2003
