Bach Choir and Orchestra: Mozart's Requiem

A masterpiece shrouded in mystery

Mozart's Requiem became known to the general public through the film Amadeus and is perhaps the most impressive work by this composer, who died young. Mozart wrote it just before his death, commissioned by an anonymous client. The Requiem evokes feelings of mourning, fear and sadness, but at the same time also hope and beauty. The musicians play authentic instruments from Mozart's time. In the Main Hall of the Royal Concertgebouw Amsterdam, The Bach Choir & Orchestra of the Netherlands brings this age-old music back to life.

Coronation Messe

The festive Coronation Mass showcases a completely different Mozart. At the coronation of the King of Bohemia, the archbishop determined that the mass should not last longer than 30 minutes. Despite, or perhaps because of, this limitation, the Mass radiates vitality and energy.

Exsultate Jubilate

Mozart's concert aria Exsultate, jubilate is performed by Olga Zinovieva. The Russian soprano is making waves on major concert stages and is praised for her enormous voice range with a range of two octaves and unique timbre. She knows how to touch a large audience with her beautiful voice, elegant style and allure. All these qualities form the perfect basis for performing Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's demanding repertoire.
