R. STRAUSS Metamorphosen
MOZART Requiem
Scored for 23 solo strings and composed during the final bombing raids of the Allies, Richard Strauss’s Metamorphosen (Metamorphoses) is a memorial to all those that perished in World War II.
Left unfinished at his death, Mozart’s Requiem remains one of his most personal works. Featured in the climax of multi-Academy Award-winning film Amadeus, Mozart’s epic funeral mass has a double-fugue and infectious melodies that indulge the best of choirs and is reflective of his astonishing genius.
