Overview
Herbert von Karajan leads the world-renowned Berliner Philharmoniker and the Wiener Singverein in Mozart’s transcendent Requiem in D minor, K. 626—one of the most emotionally powerful and mystically charged choral works in the classical canon. This recording, produced by Deutsche Grammophon and distributed through Supraphon, brings together four iconic vocal soloists under Karajan’s visionary direction. The performance captures both the intimacy of grief and the grandeur of spiritual hope, as envisioned in Mozart’s final and unfinished masterpiece.
