  • It would be awesome if you were to do the other parts as well. Are there any plans for this?

  • @RefluxRepresentative See early comments for my answer.

  • I saw a yellowish aura which seemed to surround the choir's three lower voices, but not the soprano. Is there a system to it? And speaking of composed/ orchestrated versions of Mozart's Requiem, this year I will be singing a remake of it made by James Levine, which is supposedly more faithful to Mozart's style than Süssmayr's, even if much less known. Levine is a real expert in Mozart, according to what I hear, as well as a fantastic musician.

  • @kubikpt The yellow "aura" is for the three trombones, which double the three lower vocal parts (but not the soprano) in the score.

  • @Smalin I was under the impression that only the Requiem Aeternam was completed with all vocal parts and orchestration. Then most of what was left was just vocal parts and continuo. But I guess it all depends on where your information is coming from and the mystery around the piece makes it more evocative I find.

  • @MrProfessorDonut In the version of the score I have (the Breitkopf & Haertel edition, reprinted by Dover --- which is the same as the one on IMSLP that's listed as "Leipzig: C.F. Peters, n.d.(ca.1880)."), the first place where the S (for Suessmayr) appears is at the beginning of the Dies Irae.
