The majestic beauty of Mozart's Requiem
A definitive performance by Karajan and the Vienna Philharmonic.
The magnificent soundscape created by Karajan's command and the outstanding soloists, including Vrutschladze, is a moving reproduction of this unfinished masterpiece. The deep spirituality of this work, which deals with the themes of death and eternity, is beautifully expressed through the performers' sincere interpretation. This is one of the most representative recordings of the 1980s.
