Mozart-Requiem – Chor und Orchester der Kirche St. Andreas

In the organizer's words:

Romantic legends and conspiracy myths surround Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's last work: the Requiem K. 626 remained unfinished as Mozart died while working on the commissioned composition. The unique requiem mass is one of the "eight-thousanders" of choral literature. Since conductor Martin Fratz took up his post as director of the Andreaschor in 2014, Mozart's Requiem is now the focus of the traditional opening concert for the second time. This time, Martin Fratz solves the question of how the fragment can be meaningfully supplemented with his own "Wunsch-Edition" from the instrumentations and completions of Mozart's pupils Joseph Eybler and Franz Xaver Süßmayr as well as the Munich Mozart researcher Franz Beyer.
