#also it has jerry hadley my beloved and maria ewing <333 the soloists are really Good which doesnt happen often#(the bass is a bit too baritonish for me but its nothing jarring)#introitus is too slow.#kyrie is great. could be a little faster but it's perfectly fine like this too.#dies irae is PERFECT#tuba mirum is great too tho i could also see it also work with a little faster tempo but nothing wild#rex tremendae is great tho i also dont mind when its a little slower (and i very rarely say this about mozart)#ricordare is just right too. any slower and it would be unbearable lol#confutatis is PERFECT#lacrimosa is HORRIBLE. it SHOULD be slow but lenny is really just taking the piss here.#karajan and abbado go a tad too fast for me. böhm's is fine tho the rest of his requiem is way too slow for me#domine jesu is perfect#and i dont usually much care for the rest of it but its fine too#forever bitter and heartbroken over the unfinished amen fugue </3
