«Requiem» is the album by W. A. Mozart with the Choir of New College Oxford and the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment, released by Novum on CD (2011).
The Requiem is a Mass for the dead that Mozart left unfinished and that Süssmayr completed. This version uses that score with soloists taken from the choir itself, male voices for the soprano and alto solos, and period orchestra. It includes passages such as Requiem aeternam, Dies irae and Lacrimosa.
Conducted by Edward Higginbottom. Total duration: 48:46, on a single CD.
For fans of classical music and historically informed performances with period instruments, especially of sacred repertoire.
