We sought to alter as little as possible the reconstruction of Freystadtler, Eybler and Sussmayr, and to present Mozart's largest sacred work as it was 'arranged' by his grieving and devoted pupils (1791-1792). (H. C. Robbins Landon)The "Landon version" of the Mozart Requiem, published by Mozart expert H. C. Robbins Landon, was a milestone. In his meticulously edited work, Landon incorporated latest research in an attempt to take the contributions of all the three Mozart pupils Franz Xaver Sussmayr, Joseph Eybler and Franz Jakob Freystadtler into account for the first time. The edition presents the unfinished masterpiece in a version that comes as close as possible to the state in which it was found in 1791/92, a concept that has proven itself repeatedly in performance. The "Landon version" is ideal for all who want to perform Mozart's Requiem today in this "historical form" and wish to use neither the traditional Sussmayr version nor modern-day reconstructions or new compositional attempts. NB: piano reduction and choral score can be used for both versions.
In 1821 Sigismund Ritter von Neukomm closed Mozart's Requiem with the liturgically obligatory "Libera me, Domine".
