Description:
Biber's Requiem in F minor is amongst the most impressive settings of the Requiem Mass of the 17th century. The exact reason for the composition of the Requiem, which can be dated to 1692, is not known. The dark key color of F minor is emphasized by the instrumental scoring for two violins, three violas, basso continuo and three trombones colla parte. The vivid language of the Requiem text offered Biber a wealth of possibilities for expressive, musical interpretation. The intensity of the musical language used to portray lamenting and mourning is impressive.
Scoring: Soli SSATB, Coro SSATB, [3 Trb], 2 Vl, 3 Va (3 Vl, 2 Va), Bc (Vc, Fg, Vne, Org)
