Peek behind the mask of one of the world’s greatest classical hits

Mozart’s Requiem is shrouded in mystery. Both its mysterious origins and the sad fact that Mozart died before its completion generated a river of rumours, insinuations, conjecture and myths that flows on unabated. This evening musical explorer Pieter Bergé shines a light through the fog, telling us what we can believe and what we should forget. Via numerous musical examples, he also gives us the keys we need to listen live even more intensely.
