Le Concert Des Nations La Cappela - Mozart: Requiem

Facts When he was only a child, Jordi Savall entered a church in which musicians were rehearsing Mozart's Requiem. It made such a impression on him that he said to himself: "If music has such a power, I want to be a musician." Now 81, having recorded 230 albums, he delivers a stunning new recording of this work. "Savall conducted with his chamber ensemble Le Concert des Nations and chorus La Capella Nacional de Catalunya a version vividly depicting the horrors of death... as a musician and consummate scholar he is a man of the Enlightenment and succeeds in reviving the original religious intention and effect of this Mass for the Dead."
