MOZART’S REQUIEM

And here begins the eternal discussion:
What did Mozart really write?
How far does Süsmayr’s involvement go?
What instrumental effects did Mozart have in mind when he was writing the play?
As if that were not enough, the story continues and in 1960 a draft of an escape from an Amen believed to belong to the Requiem, specifically at the end of the Lacrimosa, was found.
Using this fascinating story and the questions that arise from it as a starting point, the Cor de l’Empordà aims to offer a version of Mozart’s Requiem in the context of the last days of Mozart and Vienna in the last years of the eighteenth century, which allows the public to discover the history and genesis of this work by dismantling some false myths and legends that have been established over time and recreating sounds given by the original instruments and instrumental effects similar to those of the time.
