As long as you can live with Davis’s interpretation, you’ll find much to encourage you to reach for this LP when you want to listen to Mozart’s parting shot to the musical world.  John Crossett, theaudiobeat.com, , 4.5/5 Sound

Among all those sacred compositions that deal with the end of life, Mozart’s Requiem penetrates one’s heart and soul like no other apocalyptic work. One reason for this is surely the rather mysterious story surrounding its composition, a mixture of truth and legend, which arose during the arduous last months of the ailing Salzburg composer. Although the various developmental stages and the extent to which Mozart’s pupils participated in the composition may never be fully clarified, the mystical power of the enigmatic fragments remains constant to this day.
