Many myths have grown up around the Mozart Requiem. The commission brought by an anonymous messenger, the composer’s early death while he was still working on the score and the unfinished manuscript – all this is perfect thriller material. But Mozart’s most important sacred work really doesn’t need this kind of publicity: the music alone expresses a consummate vision.

The sad beauty of the »Introitus«, the wild terror of the »Dies irae«, the trombone solo in the »Tuba mirum«, the almost obsessive figures in the strings in the »Confutatis« – there are many passages where Mozart was way ahead of his time. Together with the Balthasar-Neumann-Chor and a select group of soloists, Thomas Hengelbrock and the NDR Elbphilharmonie Orchestra perform Mozart’s opus ultimum at the Elbphilharmonie for the first time.

The concerts open with another impressive piece of funeral music, written by Polish composer Witold Lutosławski in 1955 to mark the tenth anniversary of the death of Béla Bartók.

English

Um Mozarts Requiem ranken sich viele Mythen: Der Auftrag durch einen anonymen »Grauen Boten«, der frühe Tod des Komponisten mitten in der Arbeit an der Totenmesse und das unvollendet abbrechende Manuskript geben den perfekten Stoff für einen Krimi ab. Dabei hat Mozarts bedeutendste Kirchenmusik-Komposition werbeträchtige Legenden um ihre Entstehung eigentlich gar nicht nötig, so vollendet und visionär ist allein die Musik.

Die traurige Schönheit des »Introitus«, der wilde Schrecken des »Dies irae«, das Posaunensolo im »Tuba mirum«, die geradezu besessenen Streicherfiguren im »Confutatis« – auf etlichen Partiturseiten war Mozart seiner Zeit weit voraus. Zusammen mit dem Balthasar-Neumann-Chor und einer erlesenen Solisten-Riege bringen Thomas Hengelbrock und das NDR Elbphilharmonie Orchester Mozarts Opus ultimum nun erstmals in die Elbphilharmonie.

Eröffnet werden die Konzerte mit einer weiteren eindrucksvollen Trauermusik, die der polnische Komponist Witold Lutosławski anlässlich des 10. Todestages von Béla Bartók im Jahr 1955 komponierte.
