Cherubini owes his fame as a church composer primarily to the 'Requiem in C minor of 1817. It was held in extraordinarily high esteem by such composers as Beethoven and Schumann and served as a model for early 19th-century Requiem settings. Dispensing entirely with solo voices, it captivates with its rigorous formal concentration and its restrained use of musical resources in both choir and orchestra.This Urtext edition takes into account not only the autograph score with 'spartitino (additional instruments written in by hand) but also the first edition and a copyist's manuscript.Rounding off this exemplary Urtext publication is an informative Introduction and a Critical Commentary (Eng).- Cherubini's well-known Requiem in a definitive Urtext edition- Bilingual Foreword (Eng/Ger)- Idiomatic, uncluttered piano reduction / Alto II

In 1856, the year in which Mozart's one-hundredth birthday was elaborately celebrated, Franz Lachner composed the Requiem in F minor op. 146. It became his most well-known and most important work. Lachner's intensive study of Mozart's music on the occasion of the commemorative year lends credence to that fact that it was not inspired by a personal loss, such as a death in the family or among his friends. Although closer examination proves that his music differed essentially from Mozart's, Lachner's work shows a clear expression of his admiration for him. The parallels between the two Requiems range from the characteristics of the organization of the text and the formal structure, to the similar treatment of individual sections, themes and motives.
