The Carus Choir Coach offers choir singers the unique opportunity to study and learn their own, individual choral parts within the context of the sound of of the entire choir and orchestra. For every vocal range a separate CD containing each choir part is available. The CD is based on recorded interpretations by renowned artists who have performed the work from carefully prepared Carus Urtext editions. Each choir part is presented in three different versions:
- Original recording
- Coach: each part is accompanied by the piano, with the original recording sounding in the background
- Coach in slow mode: the tempo of the coach slows down to 70% of the original version – through this reduction passages can be learned more effectively.
The composition of the Requiem is surrounded by anecdotes and legends. Mozart’s student Franz Xaver Süßmayr completed the unfinished work after Mozart’s death. But in musical terms, the work offers far more than mere anecdotes: Mozart’s choral writing, at the height of his art, presents singers with harmonically challenging passages and thrilling fugues. If you master this, there’s great enjoyment to be had from singing the work, despite its subject matter.
