Giuseppe Verdi, himself an honored patriotic figure, held the poet AIessandro Manzoni in the highest of esteem. The great Requiem mass, as superb and typical as any of his operas, was composed by Verdi in memory of "Il Santo Don AIessandro". This Iive recording from the world's greatest arts festivals features Claudio Abbado, internationaIly accIaimed as one of the finest conductors of the day, who studied at the Conservatorio Giuseppe Verdi, conducting the London Symphony Orchestra and the Edinburgh Festival Chorus. A rare gathering of four of the world's most distinguished singers sets the scene for an unforgettabIe performance of one of the most dramatic Requiem Masses. |
