Requiem

Album by Giuseppe Verdi & Berliner Philharmoniker & Carlo Maria Giulini

Requiem (Messa da Requiem) is a Requiem mass by Italian composer Giuseppe Verdi, completed and first performed in 1874. Scored for soloists, chorus and a large orchestra, it applies Verdi's operatic dramatic techniques to the Latin liturgical text, producing a wide-ranging, theatrical sacred work that marks a significant entry in his late output and in the 19th-century choral repertoire.
First released: 20th November 1989
