Mozart's Requiem in Vienna: Charles’s Church
About the Event
Let the brilliance and beauty of Mozart's final opus wash over you in Vienna’s exquisite Baroque monument, the St. Charles’s Church (Karlskirche). Konstantin Hiller conducts the Salzburg Concert Society and Orchestra 1756 in a performance of Mozart's Requiem.
Mozart’s musical masterpiece expresses the emotional phases of upheaval, fear, hope and salvation — all emotions which besieged Mozart as he composed the Requiem during the last weeks of his life. With over 40 musicians on stage, including the Orchestra 1756 on historical instruments typical of Mozart's era, you can look forward to an extraordinary and moving concert experience.
Vienna's Karlskirche is only a few hundred metres away from Mozart's death place and is one of the most impressive and important buildings in Vienna. There certainly is no more authentic, profound and 'real' Mozart experience in Vienna.

Wonderful rendition of Mozart’s Requiem and the acoustics were amazing. Also, the blankets were a wonderful touch since it did get rather cold in the winter evening. Absolutely lovely evening. :)

This was an absolutely wonderful evening. A superb performance of a masterpiece in a stunningly beautiful church. And best of all. When we checked in our e ticket they gave us a front row seat! And a blanket. Thank you Classic Tic.

Très bon orchestre, chanteurs époustouflants, le tout dans un lieu majestueux, un moment tout simplement magique. Attention toutefois, difficile de trouver un resto à 21h30.

Orchestre et choeur très bons mais l'accoustique de l'église n'est pas très bonne

Good music, accoustic somewhat lost in the building space. Cold inside — this must affect the musicians as wellas the audience.

Die Akustik war in der großen und verwinkelten Kirche natürlich nicht optimal, aber sonst sehr schön

It was good. Excellent performance. Only one comment: alt and tenor parties should be heard better, in order to improve the dynamics and harmonies.
