Introitus
Raphaël Pichon’s recording of the Mozart Requiem comes out on October 4, but in the meantime, you can already take a listen to the work’s opening movement on all the streaming platforms!
This new release holds special import for the performers… and for all Raphaël Pichon fans, without a doubt. Five years after taking part in Romeo Castellucci’s acclaimed staging of the Requiem at the Aix-en-Provence Festival, the musicians of Pygmalion were keen to capture their vision of Mozart’s unfinished masterpiece in the recording studio. This reading, which is both collective and very personal, is informed by our own perception of death and of our environment, paradoxically allowing the score to regain a universality that transcends styles, eras, and genres.
