Mozart - Requiem: III. Sequenzia: 5. Confutatis

[rockers444]

Trying to learn this in bass is much harder than i thought it would be......

Sounds almost arificial. The longer the composers name, the less better it gets.

[ganekelioque]

i like it but the staccato gets a little annoying haha

I'll answer myself: IT's due that, when Mozart wrote this music, there was used to tune the "A " at 415hz or lower... the actual tune of 440 for the "A" note was recently aproved in the XX century.

@Joshuamalmsteen I was about to answer your question when I saw this comment. The Norrington and Druce version of Mozarts's Requiem (somewhat rare; my teacher lent her copy to me) is an extremely accurate period performance, with the tuning given in the liner notes (A=430, I believe). Norrington does more research than most period conductors; this is offset by Druce's re-composing of the notes thought to be not of Mozart's choosing (as he died before completing this work). It is very well done.

Too much staccato in the choir. Lesson of the day: Don't feed choristers frogs before a recording.

The passage starting with 'Oro supplex et' at 01.28 is, for me, perhaps the greatest thing Mozart ever wrote. :-(

This recording( XI-XII 2003) is quite an event of coming up century. Thanks for posting ! But the sound Q-ty (there are some Furtwangler recordings 60+ y.o. sounds better) from Utube !?!?! I compared with SACD ! at least 78% is missing ! maestro HARNONCOURT deserved more , extremely more . . attention . . . from intellectuals. Thank You: Nachtmarchen !
