Par MOZART WOLFGANG AMADEUS. Mozart Requiem (K.626) (Ostrzyga completion) (Full Score) This publication offers a source-critical edition of MozartĀs fragmentary ĀRequiemĀ as well as an alternative to the traditional SĆ¼ssmayr version. It makes it possible to perform 1) the fragment, identified in print in both the score and the parts, 2) the authentic sections left incomplete by Mozart, now in a stylistically appropriate orchestration, and 3) those sections missing entirely in the fragment, newly added in MozartĀs idiom taking into account historical additions by SĆ¼ssmayr and Eybler. When completing the fragment, the editor drew on comprehensive comparative and analytical studies of MozartĀs church style and compositional workmanship. The influence of Handel and Bach manifested in his final years, particularly in the ĀRequiemĀ fragment, is taken into account in those sections requiring completion or fresh composition. At two points readers may choose between alternative movements (or sections), since proceeding from SĆ¼ssmayrĀs historical version, two divergent options cannot be weighed against each other but each one may well reflect MozartĀs intentions: the ĀLacrimosaĀ may end with or without ĀAmenĀ fugue, and the ĀSanctusĀ may begin in the customary D major or in D minor. Above all, this makes it possible to retain the B-flat major ĀHosannaĀ from SĆ¼ssmayrĀs autograph, a movement which, until now, has not been appreciated as compositionally flawless. - Scholarly-critical edition of the ĀRequiemĀ fragment - With performance material for presentation of 1) the fragment, 2) a version with completions of the authentic Mozart sections or 3) a full completion consistent with MozartĀs musical idiom - Missing sections were completed by drawing from other fragmentary sacred works by Mozart - Added or completed sections incorporate influences from Bach and Handel already detectable in the fragment - Alternative performance options for the ĀLacrimosaĀ, ĀSanctusĀ and ĀBenedictusĀ - Straight-forward piano reduction - Extensive foreword (Ger/Eng) on the workĀs history, reception and modern completions, with analytical stylistic critique - Detailed Critical Commentary (Eng), partly available on the BƤrenreiter website - Tried and tested on many occasions, e.g. at Harvard University, the Rheingau Music Festival, the Monadnock Music Festival (New Hampshire), in Salt Lake City (Utah), as well as in radio broadcasts (NDR, SWR, WDR) and CD recordings with Concerto Kƶln, Chorwerk Ruhr and Florian Helgath (ĀLe Disque classique du jourĀ from francemusique.fr and three nominations for Opus Klassik 2021 in the categories ĀEnsembleĀ, ĀChoral RecordingĀ and ĀEditorial AchievementĀ) - Full Score (BA11310), Vocal Score (BA11310-90) and performance material (BA11310) available for sale / Date parution : 2022-07-20/ RĆ©pertoire / ChĀur Mixte SATB et Orchestre
