Cleveland Orchestra releases new recording of Verdi's Requiem

Verdi Requiem Cleveland Orchestra Franz Welser-Möst classical music Alessandro Manzoni

The Cleveland Orchestra, conducted by Franz Welser-Möst, has released a new recording of Giuseppe Verdi's Requiem. The publication occurred on August 21.

Verdi's Requiem has a complex history rooted in 19th-century Italian music. It originated from a fragment titled ‘Libera me’, which Verdi had intended for a collective mass following the death of Rossini in 1868. Although that collaborative project failed to premiere, Verdi later used the fragment as the foundation for a complete work following the death of Alessandro Manzoni in 1873.

The Requiem was completed in April 1874 and premiered in Milan on May 22, 1874, under Verdi's own direction. The work is noted for its dramatic intensity and its position on the boundary between sacred music and theatrical performance.
