Mozart Requiem poster

Released in 1991, Mozart Requiem is a music film directed by Humphrey Burton, running about 72 minutes. “Don't even bother looking for another version!” — that tagline sets the tone.

What it’s about. You will find this Requiem the finest on video. It certainly outshines Bohm's dated approach, and Bernstein's lethargically slow performance. (No disrespect to them, I enjoy them but this is better :) It also gives us a superb opportunity to view Solti at work, and I wonder why don't have more of his performances on video. One may also enjoy seeing (and hearing) Rene Pape at only 27 years old, likewise Cecilia Bartoli in her young prime.

Who’s in it. Mozart Requiem stars Georg Solti as Himself, Cecilia Bartoli as Herself, Arleen Augér as Herself and René Pape as Himself, among others.
