About "Requiem, K. 626 : Mozart: Requiem, K. 626: VI. Benedictus (Recorded 1975)" by Anna Tomowa Sintow

The Benedictus of the Requiem is a paradoxical oasisβ€”a blessing sung in the shadow of death. Tomowa-Sintow's soprano intertwines with the other soloists in a delicate, almost dance-like counterpoint. The music's serenity feels hard-won, a fragile bloom in a landscape of grief.
