The Verdi Requiem

Giuseppe Verde was renowned for his magnum opus and The Verdi elegy was also the same way a hit. The elegies are not for stage performances and it was momentary. There were plays right from successful ones to the ones that failed to mark his older age.

Verdi started to write his elegies in 1873 in an authorized manner though he wrote a little in 1868. As Gioacchino Rossini who was known for his operas died , Verdi formed an official group to write and elegy to pay tribute for the remembrance of the mastermind and the beginning of the elegy was Libera  Me to the Effort. In a Year's time Messa Per Rossini was done and this was by thirteen creators who never joined and always spent time quarreling and betraying.  There was no amity at al as it totally spoilt the work. An year after Rossini's death  the play was scheduled for its debut but for obvious reasons the work was overlooked and hundred years later this play was debuted and the only well known composers amongst the thirteen was Giuseppe Verdi.

The fans of Rossini were zero in the knowledge of music and society and Verdi thought that Libera Me would be somehow understood by them. There was a loss of an Italian Artful meeting in 1873 and this made Verdi realize that what was he was striving for were elegies. A well known Poet, writer and Verdi's Idol passed away immediately after he heard that his son died. Verdi instantly updated his Libera Me and sung it for his idol and channelized himself into a new way and thereby earned a name for this.

A month after Manzoni's death Verdi began functioning his elegies in Paris. In may 1874 Verdi's work was all done and was debuted on May 22, 1874 in the cathedral of Saint Mark in Milan. According to the papal conference Verdi got permission from the Arch bishop to allow girls to perform in the cathedral and thereby the girls wore a covering to mourn and they were concealed. Ovation was prohibited inside the cathedral and the audience did not respond to it until it was performed at the La Scala opera house. The place was housefull and as the play ended the audience without further delay applauded with a great sound and appreciated him. Verdi's elegies kept on meeting success and reached the culmination in Albert Hall after an year of its debut. This concert was guided by Verdi himself with a singing group of around a thousand and a one hundred forty part musical band. Verdi's elegies are called the best by detractors and are the best church music of all times. As Mozart fell into the contempt of all churchgoers and was finally rejected.  There were a few people who did not want to recognize Verdi's works because he was a so called atheist and these people believed that atheists do not have the right to create pious music.

The elegies were presented with very loud brass brimstone like instrument and to play a fortissimo-issimo-issimo- the music that was not readily accepted by the church. Verdi's great match was Richard Wagner who was his rival without meeting him. Sources say that Wagner passed a negative comment after listening to Verdi's elegy. He said that it was better not to say anything after listening to it. Such  negative comments were blown away and the elegies enthralled  and  enthused the listeners and musicians for years. The requiem or elegy that was sung at the Terezin concentration camp during World War II was performed sixteen times. This was conducted by Raphael Schächter, a jailed chorus member who performed the work. The nazi's  made fun of these people as they consider it a shame for the jews to perform with the Roman Catholics. They said that These prisoners sung their own elegies.   The prisoners felt insulted but at the same time had the feeling that the Libera Me had something to offer.

On the grounds  of music , there are subtle points to distinguish between Verdi's elegies and the characteristic  elegies.  Verdi left the frequently used gesture, Gloria that was the indication of his disbelief. The elegies of Verdi contain a ten portion IRAE called the day of wrath and,the Offeratory, the Sanctus, the Agnus Dei, and Libera me. The music is identified  by wild waves and the musician would use a  heavy brass brimstone that cannot escape and fire. He makes use of a horrifying subject of the dies irae to  make the audience realize the unavoidable death and decision depending upon the colors to baffle with unanswerable religious queries. As these elegies have undoubtedly certain musical moments it was opposed by a detractor as an opera dressed up priestly but it is  a process that can attain pious and  sensational level which when  driven with holy music will be cross valued and will be noted with intersected  fame and  durability.
