This conductor score presents Giuseppe Verdi’s Requiem (also known as Messa Da Requiem and Totenmesse), written in 1874 for four soloists, double choir, and orchestra in memory of Italian writer and humanist Alessandro Manzoni, whom Verdi greatly admired.
The work premiered on May 22, 1874—the first anniversary of Manzoni’s death—at the San Marco church in Milan under Verdi’s baton. A revised version was first performed the following year at Albert Hall in London.
The oldest part is “Libera me,” written by Verdi in 1868 for a collaborative Requiem project with other Italian composers following Gioachino Rossini’s death. When the project fell through, Verdi repurposed and revised “Libera me” for the Manzoni Requiem.
