I like Marriner's versions of this Requiem most. He gives proper slowness and power to everything, while I think a lot of other composers try to rush it and not let it creep in.

Much appreciated post :)

@TheKaryobin Good point but at the end of the day, what matters most is Mozart's ability to produce incredible emotion in me while listening to his music. No other thing on earth can produce this, say the sight of your child smiling or something like that.

@MateiAlexandruBogdan Fallacy, I'm afraid. 'Geniuses', as we refer to them, normally take ten years to reach their world class peak (a possible exception being Bobbie Fischer who some think took nine years). Mozart produced nothing world-class until the age of 22; his training began at 4 - 18 years' gap. (All the 'concerto at the age of four' stuff is nonsense, they were variations on extant pieces.)

Seen in this light is has been argued Mozart was an UNDER-achiever.

Too much 'Amadeus'.

Oh, this gives me a nostalgic trip,

I really loved to sing this, i love the basses here...

@MateiAlexandru ... Einstein mumbled about with equations? Now, I prefer music to science, but I think you greatly underestimate the imaginative leaps that Einstein was capable of. With no formal training.

[TheBrando382]

@MateiAlexandruBogdan the other guys are scientists so i think it's harder to come up with a mathematical theory, etc. But i agree, Mozart was a complete genius. I don't think theres was or there will be anyone capable of doing what he did.

[MateiAlexandruBogdan]

All the other great thinkers (Einstein, Newton, Hawking, the guy that proved Fermat's last theorem - forgot name, etc etc etc) mumble about in their equations for years before coming up with something.

Mozart would compose the piece in his head and just write it down on paper. He didn't have any sketches. He would just think it and write it down. Can you imagine coming up with this in your head? This is why he was the world's greatest genius.

This group really know how to do Mozart!!! Definitely the best take of the Requiem out there right now. Take a listen to how they do the Coronation Mass as well. It's fantastic!
