Miserere
Karfreitags- und Bußtagsmusik
For centuries Allegri's Miserere has captivated the world of music. Originally sung in the Sistine Chapel, it was the unique performance by the papal singers and the extraordinary abilities of the castrati that made the piece world-famous. The unrivalled combination of composition and performance lent the Miserere a mystical aura that moved generations of listeners, for instance, the young Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and the British music historian Charles Burney in the 18th century.
