Of all the settings of the Requiem, Verdi’s is probably the most powerful – and apart from the Mozart version, without a doubt the best known. Inspired by the death of his friend Rossini, the great opera composer created a non-denominational work whose dramatic input is in no way smaller than that of his opera scores. At the same time, the fear of death makes way for images of solace and hope, to which Christoph Schoener, with his choir and the extended Orchester St. Michaelis, give musical form.

English

Von allen Requiem-Vertonungen der Musikgeschichte ist Verdis Version vermutlich die gewaltigste – und neben der von Mozart sicher die berühmteste. Angestoßen vom Tod seines Freundes Rossini schuf der große Meister des Musiktheaters ein überkonfessionelles Werk, dessen dramatische Züge seinen Opern in nichts nachstehen. Gleichzeitig weicht hier der Schrecken vor dem Tod einer Bilderwelt aus Trost und Hoffnung, die Christoph Schoener mit seinem Chor und Orchester St. Michaelis nun in Klängen ausmalt.
