Despite his short life, his rapid pace of composition resulted in more than 800 works of virtually every Western classical genre of his time. Many of these compositions are acknowledged as pinnacles of the symphonic, concertante, chamber, operatic, and choral repertoire. Mozart is widely regarded as among the greatest composers in the history of Western music, with his music admired for its "melodic beauty, its formal elegance and its richness of harmony and texture".
Born in Salzburg, then in the Holy Roman Empire and currently in Austria, Mozart showed prodigious ability from his earliest childhood. Already competent on keyboard and violin, he composed from the age of five and performed before European royalty. His father took him on a grand tour of Europe and then three trips to Italy. At 17, he was a musician at the Salzburg court but grew restless and traveled in search of a better position.
While visiting Vienna in 1781, Mozart was dismissed from his Salzburg position. He stayed in Vienna, where he achieved fame but little financial security. During his final years there, he composed many of his best-known symphonies, concertos, and operas. His Requiem was largely unfinished by the time of his death at the age of 35, the circumstances of which are uncertain and much mythologized.

Lyrics:
Ave, ave verum corpus
natum de Maria Virgine
vere passum, immolatum
in cruce pro homine,
cujus latus perforatum
unda fluxit et sanguine.
Esto nobis praegustatum,
in mortis examine,
in mortis examine.
(June 1791)
Hail, true body
born of the Virgin Mary,
Who truly suffered, sacrificed
on the Cross for man,
Whose pierced side overflowed
with water and blood,
Be for us a foretaste
In the test of death.
In the test of death.
(June 1791)

E il brano che più mi tocca il cuore. L'ho sentito tante volte e in molte versioni, ma non riesco ad ascoltarlo senza che mi scendano le lacrime. E`semplicemente perfetto. Mozart ha detto: è già tutto composto, manca solo di scriverlo. Questa musica è davvero scesa dal cielo.

Questo brano Mozart l'ha composto per il coro di un suo amico, in occasione del Corpus Domini del 1791 (anno della morte). Dopo 225 anni continua a toccare i cuori di chi la ascolta. Compreso il mio.
Jim Bo
I sang this at school. What a wonderful music master we had. The most perfect music ever written.
Giulio Andreetta
Mozart's swan song. The absolute masterpiece, the last great testimony of peace and hopes of this great man.
Sawa Bona
I have listened to many versions of this piece, but this one has such a nice soprano lead. Really sweet.
Giuseppina Scapparone
Meravigliosa musica e altrettanto meraviglioso coro!!! I bassi sono da brivido e i soprani sono voci angeliche. Bravi e grazie per questo momento di Paradiso.
Renato Pagnoncelli
E' un gioiello, con lo spartito degli archi è ancora più straordinario. Tutto è semplice e fluisce con naturalezza, nell'infinito. Da sentire ogni volta si hanno dei dubbi sulla vita e sulla morte, cioè sempre.
Franco Prezzi
fantastica esecuzione, soprano favoloso. Mozart irragiungibile.Grazie Maestro.
