Description:

Transcendent power and beauty over all! Motzlek by Savard On a young day, Savard stepped into a church, where a rehearsal of Mozart's Requiem was taking place. When he heard it, he thought, "If music has such great power, I want to be a musician..." Many years have passed since then. Many years have passed since then, and Savall, who has made about 230 recordings to date, is now releasing Mozart's "Requiem. Savall has performed all kinds of music from the Middle Ages to Mozart's time (and more recently Beethoven and Schubert) with viola da gamba and conducting. In the midst of this religious music, Savall has painted a picture of dark sorrow and menacing death with the paintbrush and colors of Spanish Catholicism. As a musician and a scholar, Savard is truly a man of "enlightenment. Here, he brilliantly presents us with the religious significance and effect of the original Requiem, a mass for the dead. Recorded in an exquisite venue with very rich reverberation, but not excessive.≪The intense yet very soft sound of "The Day of Wrath" is an unprecedented listening experience. The sacred sound of "The Strange Sound of the Trumpet" is astonishing. This is the kind of expression that only Savall, who has lived through the history of music, could have achieved.
