Karl Böhm had an affinity for Mozart which is experienced in this historic Requiem, filmed in 1971 in the 18th-century architectural splendour of Viennas Piaristenkirche. The four outstanding soloists, orchestra and chorus here all had close associations with this great Austrian conductor, who viewed the Requiem as a monumental drama of the Day of Judgment.
