Mozart from Munich

Ivan Repu拧i膰 conducts Lutos艂awski's Funeral Music (in memory of B茅la Bart贸k) and Mozart's Davide penitente.

Ivan Repu拧i膰 conducts Lutos艂awski and Mozart in the Herz-Jesu-Kirche, a modern church in Munich which boasts the largest church doors in the world.

Presented by Fiona Talkington.

Lutos艂awski's Musique Fun猫bre was supposed to be a memorial piece on the 10th anniversary of B茅la Bart贸k's death, but the composer delivered it three years too late. Nevertheless, his "Musique fun猫bre", premiered in 1958 at the Warsaw Autumn, caused a sensation, making him known in the West and showing many fellow Eastern European composers an alternative to the socialist-realist, Soviet-influenced "folk art". The cantata "Davide penitente" was commissioned for a concert in Vienna by the charitable Tonk眉nstler-Societ盲t, and Mozart reworked his great Mass in C minor into a cantata about the penitent David.
