The mysteries and conspiracies are in full swing when it comes to Mozart's last great work, the impressive Requiem, which he left this world without completing – at the age of just 35. According to tradition, the night before he died, he sang the alto part of all the written fragments for his friends in a last desperate attempt to get the music from his physical body onto paper before it was too late. He didn't manage to do so, and the work had to be completed by former students. But even though much of the music in this work was not completed by the master himself, it is iconic music of the finest caliber, conceived, as it is, by the world's most fearsome musical mind. Mozart's Requiem has been a sure hit on concert posters around the world for centuries, and the beauty, the horror, the sorrow and the hope – everything that makes us human – also emanate from the pages of the magnificent score. Odense Symphony Orchestra collaborates regularly with high schools on Funen, and the many hundreds of young voices and the experienced singers from the Funen Philharmonic Choir lift the mood in tonight's concert, confidently led by choral conductor Stephen Moore from the Royal Danish Opera Choir.
