Another visit to the 2015 Edinburgh International Festival and another choral masterpiece showcasing the Edinburgh Festival Chorus as it celebrates its 50th year. Joining the Budapest Festival Orchestra and a quartet of world-renowned soloists in a performance of Mozart's final work, his Requiem.
The energetic Hungarian conductor Ivan Fischer also directs the orchestra in Mozart's sprightly Symphony No. 38, first performed in 1787 in Prague - that city lending the work its nickname.
