One of the most beloved musical works of all time, Mozart’s Requiem has its Early Music Vancouver debut. Led by our esteemed music director, Alexander Weimann, this performance features the Pacific Baroque Orchestra, the Vancouver Cantata Singers, and four outstanding vocal soloists.

Beginning with the weight of earthly sorrow, its soaring choral lines and radiant harmonies gradually lift the spirit toward transcendence. Through its sublime beauty, the Requiem transforms grief into a luminous journey—one where the soul, unburdened, rises toward serenity and eternal joy.

Shrouded in mystery and left unfinished upon the composer’s death in 1791, the Requiem presents intense questions about life, death, and the afterlife. This performance presents a modern completion from 2024 by English conductor and composer Howard Arman, a fruitful approach that leads to new listening experiences in this timeless work.

About the Requiem : 

Mozart is full of issues when he began to compose the Requiem, in 1791. Afflicted by debts, the viennese maestro is also seriously sick. Moreover, his music don't seduce anymore, and the popularity of his concerts drops.

We can't count the legends about the creation of the Requiem. Among them, a true story : the silent partner of the opus could be Earl von Walsegg, who wants a death mass to celebrate the memory of his wife. He asks Mozart to compose anonymously. The earl wishes pretend to be the composer , a trickery he is accustomed to. 

Exhausted, Mozart died on december 5th of 1791, he is 35. If he probably composed the complete two firts parts of the Requiem, the Introïtus and the Kyrie, the other part is recovery by one of his students, Franz-Xavier Süssmayr, from more or less detailed drafts.
