Berliner Philharmoniker & Claudio Abbado – Mozart: Requiem In D Minor: Sequentia: Lacrimosa

On July 16, 1999, the tenth anniversary of the death of Herbert von Karajan, the Berliner Philharmoniker paid tribute to their late maestro in his hometown of Salzburg. In a live shooting from the imposing Salzburg Cathedral, Claudio Abbado conducted an all-Mozart programme, honouring his predecessor both by the careful selection of the music and the singers. The Berliner Philharmoniker, conducted by Claudio Abbado, performed Mozart's Requiem in D minor, KV 626, among other works. Soprano Rachel Harnisch appeared as the soloist on the two complementing arias “Betracht dies mein Herz und frage mich” and Laudate Dominum. Featuring soprano Karita Mattila, contralto Sara Mingardo, tenor Michael Schade and bass baritone Bryn Terfel as soloists of the Requiem. A performance that in every respect met Karajan's own high artistic standards.

Splendore unico, Mozart. Che diventa superlativo quando è eseguito e condotto dai migliori musicisti. Maestro Abbado, un ricordo sempre affettuoso. ❤

[shubhankarkhatri]

I see this performance as the best interpretation of the mass. I feel this would be the way Mozart himself would've performed with his choir and orchestra. Hats off to Claudio and all the other performers. This is the best performance of Requiem till date.

By far, the best ever recording of Lacrimosa.
