Immerse yourself in the timeless beauty of one of classical music's greatest masterpieces. An extraordinary journey of emotion and transcendence, now available on 2xHD vinyl.

This 1979 recording, has been called one of the most perfect versions of Mozart's Requiem ever made. Margareta Hallin, Anne-Marie Muhle, Brian Burrows and Magnus Linden are accompanied by musicians of the Stockholm Conservatory and the Choir of St. Jacob, conducted by Stefan Skold. Each note resonates with the weight of history, inviting you to reflect, to feel, and to connect with the essence of life and death.

'... that's the beauty of these smaller specialty reissue labels, they bring to light obscure gems often buried under more commercially successful releases. ... (this) is an intimate choral work with complex textures and through this new vinyl remastering by 2xHD, all these qualities shine through. Instrumental color is vivid and complex, while everything interacts naturally with the acoustic space around it. If you want to hear realistic vocal or instrumental texture, this recording will captivate you. ' - Music = 9/11; Sound = 10/11 - Michael Johnson, TrackingAngle. Com.
