    Hi, there are representatively two versions of piano transcriptions for Lacrimosa (by Liszt or Thalberg)
    Do you guys know Sigismond Thalberg who was a rival to the Liszt? At that time, he was also a master of piano performance with various techniques. He has lots of interesting anecdotes with Liszt. I recommend you to search them. I hope that you guys will enjoy this performance. Don’t forget to subscribe (with bell) and like! Thank you for your support and encouragement!!
    [Lacrimosa dies illa,]
    That day of tears and mourning,
    [Qua resurget ex favilla]
    when from the ashes shall arise,
    [Judicandus homo reus.]
    all humanity to be judged.
    [Huic ergo parce, Deus,]
    Spare us by your mercy, Lord,
    [Pie Jesu Domine,]
    gentle Lord Jesus,
    [Dona eis requiem. Amen.]
    grant them eternal rest. Amen.

      Kassia I totally agree. It’s a great piece. There are people that call Mozart overrated, and I disagree with them because of masterpieces like the original version of this. He wrote so many pieces, all with such a style and expressiveness that cannot simply be replicated.

      To me, this is more depressing than melancholy. Melancholy is a soft bittersweet, like chopin’s writing. The emptiness and beauty that comes from falling out of love with life. Lacrimosa feels more like the rush of anger, sadness, but most of all, helplessness. A soft pit in your stomach when someone tells you bad news, before it all sinks in.

      Muffin Yeah, i really percieve it as fatality. It being Mozart's last piece before is death gives the feeling even moore. As if Mozart knew he was about to die and wrote this, laughing at the irony and despair of death. Fascinating.

That terrifying feeling you get when its so unbelieveable that you cannot believe it, and you slowly realize everything you've been doing was for naught, and in the end you are going to die realizing it was too early, and you should have done things different. Im sure Mozart didnt feel like his life was for nothing, though.

      Picking up music for fun is really simple. But mastering an instrument takes a lot of time and practice. Each instrument demands something different that makes it harder to play than another for others.
      The piano requires precise movements of each finger and timing
      The violin requires the correct angle and speed as well as hitting exactly the strings you need to produce the specific sound you want
      My favorite instrument (drums) requires you to break your brain's natural penchent for patterns. You literally have to control your arms and legs at different tempo's in order to get them to make the drum beats we love in most modern musical genre's

    This is one of my favourite musical pieces, for the emotional genius it required. For me this is the only musical piece that carries an emotion to the extreme. This is what is imagine the concept of infinite sadness to be like. If I ask a random person what would the saddest possible thing, that could happen to them, be, there is high probability their answer would be a death of someone close. I could never bring myself to play this at any funeral, because it would far supersede the grim atmosphere there. This song conveys an emotion that strong that I could not IMAGINE experiencing.

    Mozart himself only wrote down bars 1-8 of the Lacrymosa in his autograph score (Codex 17561a); his wife discover’d a stack of sketches (skizze) in his stand-up writing desk which (to judge from Suessmayr’s uneven ‘ressemplage’ = ‘completion’ of the inner voices & parts of the orchestration in bard 9-24) must have contain’d at least the 4 vocal parts & baseline-the elaborate Double Fugue Doodle-Sketch for the end of the Lacrymosa (rediscover’d in 1960 in the Berlin Library archives) of 16-bars in 3/8 time shews us the kind of skizze Constanza was referring to when she spoke to Father Abbe Maximilian Stadler about the situation after Mozart’s death (‘which caught everyone by surprise’ according to his pupil who completed the score in a handwriting very similar to Mozart’s on 4 March 1792) the former Salieri pupil & Mozart’s last Copyist Franz Suessmayr in his 8th Feb 1800 letter to the publishers Breitkopf und Haertel - which also stated that M. had play’d over earlier that week sections of the score he had not committed to paper yet; unfortunately the fortissimo reprise of the opening choral declamation of the Lacrymosa (bars 3 & 4) was incorrectly word-set by Suessmay at bar 22 (dona eis !! Requi ! Em !!) would have been correctly written (had M. liv’d to put the ‘finishing touches’ on the score) as ‘Lacrymosa ! Dies Irae !’ which according to Constanza Mozart’s younger sister, the soprano Sophie Haibel nee Weber was the last words he uttered before lapsing into his final coma : ‘Suessmayr was sitting on a chair next to the bed & the famous Requiem was lying open on the coverlet...he was trying to emulate the sounds of fortissimo trumpets, drums & trombones at the reprise of the Lacrymosa (= bar 22), puffing out his cheeks and pounding his fists on to his chest to the rhythm of that solemn moment...that scene is constantly repeated in my mind ever since...’ What a sad state of affairs that Suessmayr apparently could not always understand Mozart’s draft sketches !

    As a Pianist/Violinist I say this is Amazing. Nothing was left out.

    The fact that this video could have been very different after the 1st minute if mozart was alive just a little bit longer gives me a whole different vibe

    Music is magical, you can express your feelings, you can make people feel in the way you want, you can tell your story with music. You can make people feel your pain, joy and any other... You can refill your soul and get rid of depression, stress. You can drink a cup of hot chocolate and listen to music while watching snowflakes falling down...
    You can enjoy your final weeks of life, maybe days or even hours with music. You can understand death is not an ending. Music is necessary. You can't live without it. That's the meaning of life...
