About "Mozart: Mozart: Requiem in D minor, K.626: Introitus" by Arleen Augér
Augér’s soprano rises from Mozart’s Requiem like a candle in a crypt. The Introitus opens with solemn gravity, her voice a thread of light against dark choral mass. Calm and terror coexist: the music’s measured pace belies an abyss of grief. Haunting and eternal.
