Salzburg Festival 2017: Mozart, Requiem in D minor, K. 626 / 2017

Mozart’s Requiem – his final and unfinished masterpiece – is an extraordinary work. Discover the piece at the Salzburg Festival in the hands of conductor Teodor Currentzis, the ensemble musicAeterna, Anna Prohaska (soprano), Katharina Magiera (contralto), Mauro Peter (tenor), and Tareq Nazmi (bass). Few musical works are as steeped in legend as Mozart’s Requiem in D minor, K. 626. Commissioned anonymously by the eccentric count Franz von Walsegg, the funereal oeuvre would become Mozart’s last: when he died on December 5, 1791, only the Requiem aeternam and Kyrie movements were fully composed and orchestrated. Completed by other composers (Mozart’s student Franz Xaver Süssmayer in particular) using Mozart’s sketches and notes, the resulting work weaves the emotions we associate with death into a timeless musical exploration of every human being’s destiny, and constitutes a powerful final testament to its creator’s genius.

Requiem à l'aube / 1977

Ferdinand lives in a universe cluttered with symbols. "A" seems more attached to a very structured daily life. When "A" meets Ferdinand, the whole balance he lives in will crumble. First an "aesthetic" attraction which will turn into desire will reveal to him his true image. He will then switch into what he called "madness", unreason. Ferdinand's world is, on the contrary, unimaginable, because outside of all morality, of all Manichaeism. It is a "revealed" world because his homosexuality has transformed his view of things. Will the relationship established between Ferdinand and "A" be viable? Will there be a necessity of death, or a possibility of life?
