Mozart’s final masterpiece, the Requiem, bears the shadow of his tragic death in 1791. Left two-thirds unfinished, it was completed after his death on the initiative of his widow, Constance. By entrusting the score to the composer’s close associates, such as Eybler and Süßmayr, she ensured that she would receive the balance of the commission whilst preserving her husband’s legacy.
