The Requiem Mass K 626 in D minor, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's last unfinished work, represents a labyrinth of contradictions and mysteries that over time has divided historians and musicologists, fueling conjectures and igniting passions.
Mozart completed only the Introit: Requiem aeternam, and wrote the main parts of the opera, indicating the melodic motif of the accompaniment from time to time. Kyrie, Sequentia (with the Lacrimosa which stops after the first eight bars) and the Offertorium arrived at this stage.
After Mozart's death, his wife Constanze delegated the completion of the Requiem to her husband's three pupils, in order to get closer to the original
intentions of the work, but only Franz Xaver Süssmayr continued the work, homogeneously rearranging the work of the previous collaborators and completing the totally missing passages of the manuscript.
From the very first notes there is a sense of anguish, it is as if the author was afraid of death and judgment and it is as if it were already present.

St. Paul’s within the Walls Church
ST. PAUL’S WITHIN THE WALLS CHURCH
The 19th-century church of St. Paul within the Walls is an Anglican church located in the city centre of Rome and it has always hosted classical music performers and singers because of its fine acoustics. Built in 1873, it was the first non-Catholic Roman church to be built inside the walls of Rome.
The Church’s atmosphere becomes utterly magic at night, when the moonlight pierces through the rose windows and the candles enlighten the nave in a religious silence. Abandon yourself to the beauty of our concerts in a suggestive atmosphere.
An incredible intimate experience in the heart of the eternal city, at the border between past and future.
