Concert-Chor Concordia Hürth

With the Symphony in E-flat major KV 543, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart opens an evening of remarkable clarity and inner tension. Completed in Vienna in 1788, the work is one of the composer’s final three symphonies and marks a pinnacle of his symphonic achievement.

At the heart of the concert lies the Requiem in D minor KV 626, in the completion by Franz Xaver Süßmayr. Mozart’s last, unfinished work unites dramatic power with consoling intimacy. Here unfolds a music of timeless expressive force that speaks beyond religious boundaries of mortality, solace, and transcendence.
