[germando7]

simplemente expectacular!! saludos desde Venezuela!

[wydead]

Sorry, it's Domine Jesu, not Domine Deus

[smileandwatchJohnnyD]

I LOVE this!

[IngridFlesch1]

there's no J in latin

[sambalamification]

@IngridFlesch1 No, you're right; it's a variant of 'i.' A "swash" character. It's been used in Latin as such, generally at the beginning of words, and as the final 'i' in Roman numerals, and remained such until, I imagine, more modern textbooks began to ignore it as confusing English students who were being taught Erasmian pronunciation. The same is the case with "v" and "u"--merely variants of each other (etymologically speaking).

Awesomely Supplicant & immensely Gorious...powerfully reverent Offertorium...indeed a tribute & Masterpiece of Amadeus Wolfgang Mozart is this performance...makes one engage in deep soul searching & dwell in the profoundess of The Good Lord's redemptive, endless Mercy...& His Divine, Eternal Gifts of Hope & Peace & be sublimely Supplicant, reverent & reminisce on the Promises to Abraham & dwell on The Last Supper...In a way Faith is Hope against Hope & Love is Forgiveness!!

[Kennychan222]

Mozart got his BALL of Steels!

[phnx90]

Whose/which version is this? I have the Karajan/Berliner Philharmoniker version and I think I like that more. Many thanks for the lyrics!

[Croconos]

[Snowyness]

Uhm, is it just me or does anyone else hear someone chanting "Exfoliate" at 0:07? O_o...

[SPAINole3]

3 votes dont like it? wow amazing

[ryanlock2u]

The Domine Jesu really shows Mozart's genius: The incredibly smooth modulation from G minor to A flat major, three fugues back-to-back and the incredible build in tension in the Quam olim! And all of these things are so subtle you barley notice them, but they still function as the composer intended them.

[jolie0216]

His pupil Sussmayr was said to fleshed out the sketches for the parts of the Requiem following the Lachrymosa.

1:32

[Frogling707]

@jona4176 O_o, I wondered that too, hryzunik do you know? If Mozart only wrote the first eight bars, who the hell finished it?

[ryanlock2u]

I love this recording!

[Moizest]

Quam OLIM ABRAHAE! PROMISISTI <--- Is the best part of it! This music is as good as Heavy Metal! I love it!

[Frogling707]

Did Mozart only write up to Confutatis? I don't know :[

[hryzunik]

As far as I am concerned he did write up to Confutatis and he also wrote first 8 bars of Lacrimosa. Communion is his music from Introitus, but with different lyrics. He completely sketched the Offertorium and Hostias, but probably not Sanctus, Benedictus and Agnus Dei.

[Ono42012]

dudes honestly just cuz it wasnt finished on paper by mozart didnt mean he didnt have it in mind. he was a musical genius period! at least thats wat i think :/

[jona4176]

@hryzunik What? Did Mozart only write 8 bars of Lacrimosa? Who did the rest then?

[Patchworkdrum]

@hryzunik As far as anybody really knows, he wrote up to (as you said) the first 8 bars of Lacrimosa. Sanctus and another section was written by Sussmayr, I believe.

[DiesIrae676]

@hryzunik I was pretty sure he had sketches for the Agnus Dei. ( only stating that because the Levin and Sussmeyer edition have the same basic ideas, and melodic soprano line. the inner voices are different as well) I know for a fact after the Lacrimosas first eight lines to the Agnus Dei there is a great debate on what would have done. For example: Sussmeyer has a small Amen at the end of the Lacrymosa while Levin has a full Amen chorus.

[Deadly980]

@hryzunik which is weird because while i don't like the hostias sacntus or the beidictus the Agnus Dei is one of my favorite parts.

[Deadly980]

@Deadly980 Benidictus sorry i momentarily lost my ability to spell correctly.

[gbgkinesen]

@hryzunik Sanctus and Benedictus is very very weaked sketched. He wrote nearly nothing on them as he was too sick to write more. Those where the parts that Sussmayer completed entierly on Mozarts Instructions. Agnus Dei on the other hand... Well Mozart Died before they started that so It's the part that is in fact written all by Sussmayer.

[Ilkeyrion]

@sclyfes1212 Mozart wrote an official Introitus. He then left complete sketches of the Kyrie, and complete SATB of the Sequenz through to the first 8 bars of the Lacrimosa. However, there are parts of the orchestration throughout the sequenz. Mozart also completed the SATB and bass for the Offertorium, but didn't finish the orchestration. He also left an "Amen Fugue," which is thought to go after the Lacrimosa, but is omitted in the Suessmayr completion

[SPAINole3]

this is pure magic that can take you away so far so free with such music im free in jesus name

[Lanark8]

Magnificent... such an impact this work has. Kind regards to you and yours. Always!

[xmvirus202]

This is one of the best interpretations of this piece, I prefer this tempo.

[Maphysto]

I'm not sure why so many conductors have so many different interpretations of the tempo of peices in the requiem. A personal pet peeve for me is when they insist on playing the Lacrimosa in double time.

[HackersSun]

Man! MOZART IS THE REQIUM MASTER!! Although I have a hard distinguishing him from Beethoven...

[Lanark8]

tsk... :). How could you... my word.

[lxktn1989]

Well, I don't know about him, but I haven't learned Mozart and Beethoven's B A C B Natural yet. I recognize certain famous works, but I probably wouldn't pick out a work I'd never heard.

[Lanark8]

ha! Warm regarrds my friend in music :)

[Lanark8]

must say... when listening... at point 1:30 what you think./ To me its unearthly. Gosh...

[WiseMonki]

I could not have said it better myself. Thanks so much for these wonderful videos... the soprano voice is so wonderful... young and in the bloom of her youth. My warm and thankful regards,

[Mortimmerr]

thank you for this wonderful video

[valentinabg09]

I love it but my favourite is confutatis

[deficente666]

thank you I watched all your videos

[CBDK8009]

Glad to see intellect on Youtube. Great job!

[9hjil]

Thank you so much for this effort. I once told a minister that I knew that there was a GOD because I heard HIS voice in the music of Mozart.

[WiseMonki]
