CD ReviewsA stellar conductor walks through the Requiem Santa Fe Listener | Santa Fe, NM USA | 05/23/2006 (3 out of 5 stars) "I am a huge fan of Franz Welser-Most (even flying from Santa Fe to Cleveland expressly to hear him conduct Mahler), but this Mozart Requiem from early in his career is mostly indifferent. Clearly Welser-Most had an idea here: to give us a lyrical, singing reading that would achieve a kind of gentle lift-off. That happens here and there, and it's a relief not to hear this work punched out like the crack of doom. But the overall effect feels too generalized (I don't get a hint of religious emotion), and he rushes some of the most beautiful passages, such as the Benedictus. The vocal quartet and chorus are fine, but the whole affair has little to offer that's special."
