Dvorák’s mighty "Requiem" was commissioned for Birmingham’s renowned music festival. Since its premiere there in 1891 under the composer’s direction, it has enjoyed huge popularity. Although based on the liturgical Latin text, it was conceived from the outset as a full-length work for concert performance. In inimitable style, Dvorák’s "Requiem" presents a vast emotional spectrum from religious devotion to moments of drama and agonized lamentation, all with a truly impressive depth of expression. The choir plays a central role in the work: with one exception, Dvorák features it in all 13 sections. / 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 the entire choir and orchestra. For every vocal range a mp3-CD or -download containing each choir part is available. The Carus Choir Coach 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: 1) Original recording, 2) Coach: each part is accompanied by the piano, with the original recording sounding in the background, 3) 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 / Performers: Maria Stader (Soprano), Sieglinde Wagner (Alto), Ernst Haefliger (Tenore), Kim Borg (Basso) – Czech Chorus, Prag – Czech Philharmonic Orchestra – Karel Ancerl.
