The JFK memorial Mozart Requiem from Boston Sony Music Entertainment is honoured to reissue an extraordinary recording: the document of an historic occasion for the first-ever international release on CD. The Kennedy memorial in Boston was recorded live by RCA Victor and immediately issued in a 2-LP box. Now, 50 years after the tragic event it commemorates, the complete service containing the Mozart Requiem – including all the copious original documentation – becomes available for the first time internationally on CD, in a state-of-the-art remastering on Sony Classical.

Better than expected.
I already own several CD versions of the Mozart Requiem and purchased this one partly just to add to my collection, and for the obvious historical interest (I also study modern US history). Not expecting too much when I played this JFK Memorial version of the requiem I was prepared for it to be not so good. How wrong I was. It is very good, not outstanding by any means, but very good none the less. I strongly recommend it.
