The history of the interpretation of Verdi’s Messa da Requiem is inextricably bound up with the name of Herbert von Karajan. He conducted the work on countless occasions, and in this legendary 1984 concert, he performed it with some of the greatest singers of that time: Anna Tomowa-Sintow, Agnes Baltsa, José Carreras, and José van Dam.
Verdi wrote his Messa da Requiem (Mass for the Dead) in 1873-74, between Aida and Otello, for Alessandro Manzoni, a poet whom he much admired. Despite its profound spirituality, the piece is not intended for liturgical use, but for the concert hall. This masterpiece brings together the finest qualities from Verdi’s operas: endless melodic lines and captivating musico-dramatic effects.
