Product Description
Arranged standard brass quintet.
The Requiem in D minor, K. 626, is a requiem mass by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (17561791). Mozart composed part of the Requiem in Vienna in late 1791, but it was unfinished at his death on 5 December the same year. A completed version dated 1792 by Franz Xaver Süssmayr was delivered to Count Franz von Walsegg, who commissioned the piece for a requiem service on 14 February 1792 to commemorate the first anniversary of the death of his wife Anna at the age of 20 on 14 February 1791.
This is no 1 of the Sequenz "Dies irae"
The Dies irae ("Day of Wrath") opens with a show of orchestral and choral might A rising chromatic scurry of sixteenth-notes leads into a chromatically rising harmonic progression with the chorus singing "Quantus tremor est futurus" ("what trembling there will be" in reference to the Last Judgment). This material is repeated with harmonic development before the texture suddenly drops to a trembling unison figure evocatively painting the "Quantus tremor" text.
It suits the brass quintet.
Interesting parts for every player.
