Wow! The echo in that church is awesome!!!

[@janel342]

Not an echo!! No musician would work with an echo. I think you mean resonance? And it’s a Cathedral which helps.

[@steffanyschwartz7801]

I love how every conductor just starts going nuts when Dies Irae starts playing

[@SimonLedbury]

BRILLIANT use of the unique acoustics in St Paul's Cathedral! The Chorus and Orchestra are outstanding, and Bernstein allows his superb soloists to shine. A supreme interpretation!

[@cattycorner8]

Oh it's St. Paul's! So happy you made this comment. So thankful for this version. It is perfect.

[@Tevyeh613]

The thing about the tempi (more elastic than others) is that I think LB was taking into account the very particular echo at St Pauls - so you can't just plough ahead - you have to let the sound ring, and then die before moving to the next phrase - take for instance "et preces hymnus". how he takes it slower - and allows each phrase to ring and end before moving on - for clarity, taste, musicianship and sheer brilliance.

[@kable321]

"Te decet hymnus," not "et preces hymnus" (whatever that might mean)

[@harpist_hector]

Every time I listen to Liber Scriptus, it reminds me that that was my most important solo as a lyrical singer, being a mezzo-soprano boy, and my teacher, she was the soprano, we were sitting together and everything was very beautiful, Verdi's requiem will always have a place in my heart.

[@asurfingbird4377]

This entire performance is a masterpiece itself, but that Dies Irae in particular is unlike any other I've heard in my opinion. The trumpets are extremely clear and the percussion is extremely powerful. Altogether mixed with this tempo really emphasizes the anger of the Dies Irae without it feeling too rushed. Bravo.

[@photo161]

...The terror of the days of wrath, the terrible wrath of God...The entire piece presents the pleas of the supplicant, the frightened, the guilt-ridden supplicant to be spared the Dies Ira, It represents the pleas of the self-confessed but deeply penitent sinner that God's mercy be bestowed on him and his.

So great to be able to contrast this with other recordings on KZbin - I actually hear the prayer come through in this recording. It's a beautiful piece - and it's so easy to make it an occasion to showboat - demand that the lord hear OUR prayer and the like. Bernstein brings out all of the drama and fire and leaves us feeling the awe the music is meant to inspire. Bravo!

If I remember correctly, it was hell getting the technical side of this set up. They were heavily pressed for time and getting the right angles and mic placement was a big challenge. Obviously no excuse for showing the horn section instead of the trumpets once everything is already set up, but it's still an interesting fact.

[@paulkim6692]

By far, this is my fave version.

[@Twentythousandlps]

This was the second performance of the Requiem, which had lost Franco Corelli; the replacement tenor for the first performance was Robert Tear. Of course, PD was very prominent by February of 1970, but not yet a star name. Bernstein did not revisit the work after making the audio recording for Columbia, after which Bernstein did not conduct Verdi again. This was the first in the series of videos he made for his Amberson Company over the next twenty years.

Like Handel's MESSIAH, Verdi's REQUIEM is essentially an opera in concert form.

[@jasonhurd4379]

Hmmm...not really. Despite the many superficially theatrical moments, Messiah is essentially a meditative work, geared toward contemplation. Händel came much nearer to opera in Belshazzar, Esther, Samson (which the Met has staged), Esther, and in his greatest composition of all: Jephtha.

[@carlobrotto7132]

Not at all. Verdi's Requiem is beyond any form, but if we want to pick one to dress up this titanic masterpiece it's clearly the symphony at its highest .

[@johnroberts18651]

Does the form really matter? It is an exquisite work of art undergirding ancient prayers for the dead.
