Mozart: Requiem in D Minor K626 III.Sequenz No.4 Recordare - symphonic wind by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart Woodwind Quintet - Digital Sheet Music

SKU: A0.1473965

Arranged double wind quintet and contrabass.

The Requiem in D minor, K. 626, is a requiem mass by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756–1791). Mozart composed part of the Requiem in Vienna in late 1791, but it was unfinished at his death on 5 December the same year.

A completed version dated 1792 by Franz Xaver Süssmayr was delivered to Count Franz von Walsegg, who commissioned the piece for a requiem service on 14 February 1792 to commemorate the first anniversary of the death of his wife Anna at the age of 20 on 14 February 1791.

Section III of the requiem is titled “Sequenz” (sequentia or sequence).

It is made up of the following pieces
Dies irae
Tuba mirum
Rex tremendae
Recordare
Confutatis
Lacrymosa

I have arranged of all of them for wind dectet, and for other varying types of ensemble

This is my arrangement of No. 4 Recordare

At 130 measures, the Recordare ("Remember") is the work's longest movement, as well as the first in triple meter (3/4); the movement is a setting of no fewer than seven stanzas of the Dies irae.
The form of this piece is somewhat similar to sonata form, with an exposition around two themes (mm. 1–37), a development of two themes (mm. 38–92) and a recapitulation (mm. 93–98).
