Composed during the last days of his life, Mozarts Requiem moves from tragic resignation in its opening to the fierce vigor of the Dies Irae and finally the intense pleading of the Lacrimosa, the movement left unfinished at his death.
Antonio Salieri, depicted in the movie Amadeus as Mozart's nemesis, actually composed some extremely beautiful music, none more so than De Profundis. A simple, pure soprano chant gradually builds to a grandiose conclusion with full orchestra and chorus.
Virtually unknown, Joseph Martin Krauss Requiem provides a striking contrast to Mozartslighter but equally haunting. The German Kraus later worked in Sweden, becoming known as the Swedish Mozart.
