An unfinished work of solemn orchestration and yet serenely colored, a musical testament written when Mozart’s fortunes could have finally turned after the success enjoyed by his opera The Magic Flute, the Requiem belongs to the great musical legends. Passion, tenderness, gravitas and gentleness interweave in the work, here performed by the OSM Chorus, the Orchestra and four soloists under the direction of Kent Nagano. A Mozart symphony and one of Pierre Boulez’s most important works complete the program.
