Vocal Score Large Print-The story of the composition of Mozart's Requiem has a strange fabulous quality that is entirely typical of the events of his life. Whether we are considering his amazing exploits and achievements as a youthful virtuoso and maestro or the depth of his financial misfortunes in Vienna in the late 1780s there is little that is mundane about the main biographical facts.It comes as no surprise then to find that these facts have often been coloured and embroidered to enhance their emotional effect and to create a legend about this most remarkable musician. The simple story of the genesis of the Requiem is in itself striking - that in the last weeks of his lifeMozart was working on a Mass for the Dead that this work was the result of an anonymous commission and that the commissioner's envoy in order to avoid giving an address paid Mozart several unannounced visits like a messenger from another world - this story can easily be filled out with portents and hints of the supernatural.Even the account by Franz Niemetscheki (first published in 1798 based on information given by Mozart's widow Constanze and later receiving 'official' approval by being incorporated into the Mozart biography by Constanze's second husband Georg von Nissen) writes of the commissioner's agent appearing 'like a ghost' and Friedrich Rochlitz's account goes much further in suggesting that the composer was possessed by a demoniac and feverish desire to complete the Requiem and conscious of approaching doom

Requiem K.626 The Requiem completed by Franz Xaver Süssmayr in its traditional form. Mozart’s final work the Requiem K.626 was left incomplete and it is fraught with questions and emotions: the expressive depth of its music sorrow at the great composer’s early death truth and legend fragments and attempts to complete the work. The completion of the fragmentary score by his assistant Franz Xaver Süssmayr who helped him with The Magic Flute has the character of a historical source with utmost closeness to Mozart’s thoughts. - Urtext of the New MozartEdition - Full score (BA4538-01) performance material (BA4538) vocal score (BA4538-90) and study score format 22.5 x 16.5cm (TP152) available for sale - Facsimile edition BVK2346

The Requiem was Mozart’s final composition. It was commissioned by the widow of the Countess von Walsegg who died in February 1791. After working on the Requiem through October and November however Mozart fell ill and died without completing it. Mozart's widow needing money asked Joseph Eybler to complete the work. Unfortunately he could not finish the work and it was handed over to Franz Xaver Sussmayr. However Sussmayr was a musician of limited capabilities and much of his contribution was in fact a copy of Eybler's work.This new edition of Mozart's Requiem starts afresh from Mozart's incomplete autograph and uses none of Eybler or Sussmayr'scontributions. The orchestration has been reworked throughout using parts of Die Zauberflote and La Clemenza di Tito as the chief models.

No other work by Mozart is so enshrouded in myth as his final composition the D-minor Requiem. Mozart died before its completion and the missing sections had to be added by others. The many handwritten copies circulated after his death added to the corruption of the text by contributing errors of their own. Now Peters is publishing a new urtext edition of this staple of the choral repertoire edited by David Black. The edition relies on Mozart’s composition and the traditional completion by Franz Xaver Süssmayr. For the first time however it incorporates sources previously unavailable to earlier editions including the Neue Mozart-Ausgabe.

Mozart?s Requiem has entered the realm of myth. This is surely the best-known of all sacred choral works and is performed all over the world. Now a new version for solo voices chorus and organ allows this legendary masterpiece to be performed without orchestra and thus without strain on the budget. The choral writing has been taken unaltered from the Urtext of the New Mozart Edition while the organ part by Martin Focke adheres strictly to the original orchestral writing. The result is a version as convincing as it is self-contained.Franz Xaver Süssmayr?s additions have been used to complete Mozart?s unfinished original.Self-contained version withorgan instead of orchestraIdeal for church services and concert performancesClear and well-presented organ partThe Bärenreiter Choir & Organ Series presents great choral works in arrangements for soloists choir and organ; no orchestra is needed.The original orchestral parts have been transcribed into easy-to-play organ reductions whereby the contemporary tradition of such arrangements has been taken into consideration. In some cases the original organ versions by the composer were used. The organ parts are presented on three staves. The choir and solo parts always remain true to the original. You need only one edition for soloists singers and organist alike.

Mozart's last work was actually unfinished when he died in 1791. Completed by friend and pupil Franz Xavier Sussmayr it has become a testament to Mozart's enduring greatness unmatched for melodic eloquence and emotional depth.This marvelously effective adaptation for winds includes the opening 2 movements Introit and Kyrie Eleison.
