Mozart's Requiem KV 626 stands as one of the most iconic and mysterious works in the history of classical music. Commissioned anonymously and left unfinished at the time of Mozart's death in 1791, it has sparked countless discussions and legends surrounding its completion. Despite its incomplete state, the Requiem showcases Mozart's unparalleled genius, with its powerful choral sections, poignant solo passages, and hauntingly beautiful melodies. The manuscript, containing Mozart's original sketches and the additions made by his assistant Franz Xaver Süssmayr, provides valuable insights into the composition process.

International social justice movements and the debates that ensued prompted us to start considering the contents of our website from a critical point of view. This has led us to acknowledge that most of the texts in our database are Western-centered. We have asked the authors of our content to be aware of the underlying racial and cultural bias in many scholarly sources, and to try to keep in mind multiple points of view while describing the manuscripts. We also recognize that this is yet a small, first step towards fighting inequality.

If you notice any trace of racist or unjust narratives in our communications, please help us be part of the change by letting us know.
