Mozart’s Requiem is a monument to the human condition. On the one hand, it contains the essential ingredients of a best-selling novel, such as the genius’s unconditional commitment to his art, missing identities, conspiracy, death… in this case through the musical genre that is most directly related to it. But it is also sublime music that moves. With all its beauty, it crosses the thresholds of our understanding with firm steps. The result is a reflection on existence, hope, overcoming, mystery and the meaning of life.
