5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant Feb 8 2013
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
I love this CD. The actual mass taking place, the spoken Latin words really give a meaning to this beautifully produced record. You won't be disappointed, get it and then get karajan and then explore other conductors...

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Mozart Requiem recording available April 23 2003
Format:Audio CD
What an event this is. Solti is in top form here conducting the Vienna Philharmonic in a very powerful and fiery performance of this most famous of requiems. While some conductors take the Kyrie pretty slow, Solti kicks it in high gear and keeps it moving. The soloists are all magnificent especially Cole and Pape. The Dies Irae and the Confutatis are more powerful here than I have ever heard them before. The chorus is very fine and sings with power and a lovely round sound. The Lacrymosa and Domine Jesu are incredibly beautiful. This is probably the 2nd best Mass recording ever, right behind Barenboim's Verdi Requiem recording. Get them both and be prepared to be moved in a way you never thought possible.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great event Nov 20 2001
Format:Audio CD
I have loved Mozart's Requiem for years, and am a huge Mozart fan. This CD combined many things I love: Solti's conducting, Bartoli's voice and a setting/orchestra that is phenomenal. I found this recording of the 626 better than almost any other I have in my collection. The different parts were performed beautifully, and the expression injected into the piece was overpowering (in a good way). I could almost feel the anguish of Mozart as he lay dying, but trying to get this last piece of music out.

I would highly recommend this CD to anyone.

I love this recording because the soloists really shine and the tempo is always just right.

The music is fabulous...when there is music. Someone decided to leave in place the actual mass, celebrated during this live performance. BAD call. Read more

This is my favorite piece that Mozart ever wrote. Every section is beautiful and exciting. The acoustics in this recording are breathtaking, and the chorus sounds lovely. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Best version of K626
Solti captures the emotion perfectly in this recording. Also, the accoustics in St. Stephen's Cathedral are excellent. Best if listened to in Surround Sound.

4.0 out of 5 stars The Perfect Requiem Recording
I bought the CD because Cecilia Bartoli is the mezzo, but I like it for many more reasons than that. I just performed the Requiem with Boston University's Symphonic Chorus. Read more
