  • This project has been in the works for nearly a year. I wanted to create a modernized version of Mozart's Requiem in D minor because it's so epic and lends itself perfectly to the rock/metal genre. Unlike some of my other covers however, I wanted to use all real instruments and performers and even a choir of singers to help lay it all down. I'm very happy with the way it turned out. I hope you like it too!

    This actually perfectly conveys the feeling of both pieces:
    1) A command from God to kneel before Him while Hell rages around you, on the last day, as all will do when the Day of Wrath happens: There’s a reason it’s called the Wrath of the Lamb.
    2) The Lacrimosa: A plea for mercy on that day, from all living and dead, from angels and saints, a plea for the dead and dying to be granted mercy, on the same day, both with reverence and with acknowledgement of the Wrath of the Lamb, oddly soothing yet terrifying. Both reflecting that it’s a prayer, a submission to God’s will.

    Estoy realmente impresionado con el arte de estos muchachos. Jamás pensé que una obra como el Réquiem de Mozart pudiera convertirse en Rock al que no le tengo mucha afición. Más bien soy muy celoso de la música clásica que me llena por su perfección y contenido. Ver a jóvenes tan talentosos que hacen un lindo arreglo digno del mejor artista, es el mayor aporte a la humanidad. Felicitaciones.

    This is F-ing brilliant! I imagine this video was recommended to me because I can't stop watching Selin Schönbeck's metal version of the Brahms Req II. I loved the subtle beginning contrasted with the total sense of urgency when the choir entered with Confutatis (Once the cursed have been silenced, sentenced to acrid flames, Call me, with the blessed.) I was literally in tears at the Lacrymosa (Tearful [will be] that day, on which from the glowing embers will arise the guilty man who is to be judged....). We don't always hear the desperation that we hear in this performance. "Huic ergo" (Then spare him, O God.) combined appropriate supplication with desperation, and a total desperation returned with "Pie Jesus requiem" (Grant him rest, Jesus). I have sung this work many times, and have heard ensembles with many different choral styles perform it, and I fully support the choice of a young-sounding choir here. Well done, I say!
    (BTW, I am an opera blogger known as Taminophile who has always loved and written about choral music.)

    Time traveler: Wolfgang, did you think your Requiem would be played 240 years from now, but on new instruments?
    Wolfgang: Yes. It’s the greatest funeral mass ever written. Of course it would be remembered and played on instruments available.
    Traveler: Wait, you...
    Wolfgang: not the answer you were expecting, huh?

  • @alibesharatian1749
    @alibesharatian1749 3 роки тому +1

    Requiems are gothic in nature even though they were mostly prevalent in the romantic era, and Mozart’s is by far the most formidable among them - no wonder this rendition works well. Another (non-requiem but funeral music) example would be Purcell’s funeral of Queen Mary which was rendered into an electronic version in Kubrick’s a Clockwork Orange. Signed: a classical music lover who doesn’t understand rock or electronic music.
