Mozart Requiem at Salzburg Cathedral

About the Event

Experience the haunting beauty of Mozart's Requiem at Salzburg Cathedral on All Saints' Day.

Renowned for its emotional depth, this classical masterpiece is surrounded by the legends of Mozart's final days. It captures profound emotions that mortality evokes: fear, anger, despair, sadness, hope, and consolation.

Salzburg, Mozart's birthplace, is deeply entwined with his legacy and the cathedral. He served there as a concertmaster and court organist, premiering significant sacred works like the Coronation Mass, Credo Mass, and Sparrow Mass.

This year, the Sing mit! Chorfestival will showcase the Mozart Requiem alongside the Vienna Boys' Choir, the cathedral orchestra, and distinguished soloists. Directed by Erasmus Baumgartner, choristers from around the globe will engage in intensive workshops to perfect this iconic piece.
