Mozart's Requiem is a profound emotional journey that ranges from angst sheer terror and sublime transcendence. Experience the region’s first ever period performance featuring basset horns natural trumpets sackbuts and more – breathing new life to this consummate masterpiece. Left unfinished at the composer's untimely death the Requiem was completed by Franz Süssmayer offering a poignant glimpse into Mozart's final musical thoughts. The Mozart is paired with a performance of Dixit Dominus by 18th-Century composer Marianna Martines who was a student of Haydn and was one of Vienna’s most prominent composers. She received more acclaim than perhaps any other female composer of her time yet her name isn’t mentioned enough today. Dixit Dominus is a prime example of her skill in combining the Baroque contrapuntal tradition with the emerging Classical style.
