When Mozart died in 1791, he left unfinished the score of his Requiem. At the request of his widow, the work was completed by Mozarts pupil and assistant, Franz Xaver Sssmayr. Unfortunately, Sssmayr was a musician of limited technique and abilityhis poor orchestration has frequently been criticized, and considerable controversy has surrounded the question of whether the movements missing from Mozarts autograph were entirely Sssmayrs work, or whether he might have based them on Mozarts sketches or oral instructions.This book is an intensive new study of the background to the Requiem and the music itself. Maunder, who after many years research has recently completed a new edition of the Requiem that attempts to be more faithful to Mozarts original intentions, presents detailed arguments concerning the authenticity of the doubtful movements, the editorial decisions he faced in preparing the new edition, the settings by other composers that may have influenced Mozart, and the problems of performance practice. He concludes that Sssmayr probably did write the disputed movements, but may have used a nowlost Mozart sketch in composing the Agnus Dei. This fascinating new study of one of classical musics bestloved works will interest a wide range of music students and scholars, and general readers.

Mozart’s Requiem is one of my favorites, and this new edition is a real treat! The clarity in the score is impressive, making it easier to follow along during rehearsals. I got it for my music studies, and it’s been super helpful.

Solid Edition but Some Flaws
I appreciate the effort put into this edition of the Requiem, but the binding feels a bit flimsy. I was expecting a sturdier book for the price. Still, the music itself is beautifully presented, so it’s not a total loss.

Great for Music Enthusiasts
I bought this edition of Mozart’s Requiem for my son who’s studying music composition. The layout is nice, and the annotations are quite helpful. He loves it, but I wish it came with a digital version too.

Disappointed with the Annotations
While I love Mozart's music, I was not a fan of how the annotations were done in this edition. They seemed incomplete or lacking in depth. For serious study, I found it lacking. Probably not worth the money for me.
