ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON THIS PERFORMANCE
La clemenza di Tito is one of the last three great works of W.A. Mozart and the last serious opera of him. It had been many years since he had written a work of this style and it was for a commission that he returned to it. He wrote La clemenza di Tito, numbered K 621, when he had almost finished The Magic Flute (K 620) and at a time when he was considering, for the famous and mysterious commission, the creation of his Requiem, which would be an immortal work for others. and deadly for the composer himself (K 626). The same numbers already show that they occupy the highest figures in a work as abundant as surprising in whom he died at the age of 35. When listening to La clemenza, we must situate ourselves, then, in the convulsive moments of vitality and great creativity that preceded a death.
