Messa da Requiem is the fourth work to be published in The Works of
Giuseppe Verdi. Following the strict requirements of the series,
this edition is based on Verdi's autograph and other authentic
sources, and has been reviewed by a distinguished editorial
board--Philip Gossett (general editor), Julian Budden, Martin
Chusid, Francesco Degrada, Ursula Gunther, Giorgio Pestelli, and
Pierluigi Petrobelli. It is available as a two-volume set: a full
orchestral score and a critical commentary. The appendixes include
two pieces from the compositional history of the Requiem: an early
version of the Libera me, composed in 1869 as part of a
collaborative work planned as a memorial to Rossini; and the Liber
scriptus, which in the original score of the Manzoni memorial
Requiem was composed as a fugue in G minor. The score, which has
been beautifully bound and autographed, is printed on high-grade
paper in an oversized format. The introduction to the score
discusses the work's genesis, instrumentation, and problems of
notation. The critical commentary, printed in a smaller format,
discusses the editorial decisions and traces the complex
compositional history of the Requiem.
