Step into the world of Mozart like never before. This spring, Beleefklassiek brings two of his most iconic works to life in a series of unforgettable concerts across the Netherlands: the monumental Requiem and the sparkling Eine kleine Nachtmusik.

From a melody almost everyone knows to one of music's greatest mysteries

You may not think you know Mozart. Then the first notes of Eine kleine Nachtmusik begin - and chances are you recognise them immediately.

This concert takes you from Mozart at his lightest and most joyful to Mozart at his most dramatic: the mysterious Requiem, left unfinished when the composer died.

Two completely different sides of one musical genius, experienced live in some of the Netherlands' most impressive concert venues.

The Mozart you already know

Eine kleine Nachtmusik is one of the most instantly recognisable pieces in classical music. Bright, energetic and elegant, it is the perfect entry point for anyone who does not usually attend classical concerts. Hearing a melody you have known for years suddenly come alive in front of you is part of the magic of live music.

The programme also features flautist Katja Pitelina in Mozart's Flute Concerto in D major, KV 314, as well as soprano Olga Zinovieva performing Et incarnatus est from Mozart's Mass in C minor, K.427.

Mozart's final masterpiece

Then the atmosphere changes. Mozart's Requiem belongs to the final chapter of his life and has fascinated audiences for generations. Its story became even more famous through the film Amadeus. Grief, fear, hope and release alternate in music of extraordinary dramatic power.

The performance is given by the renowned Bach Choir & Orchestra of the Netherlands, one of the established classical ensembles in the Netherlands. The orchestra plays on authentic period instruments, creating a transparent and vivid sound that brings Mozart's music remarkably close.

Together with international soloists and conductor Pieter Jan Leusink, the ensemble brings the contrast between Mozart's brilliance and drama fully to life.
