To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

He believed he had beenpoisoned, and Count Walsegg's grey-clad messenger seemed a messengersent from another world to warn him of the approaching finish. As hesaid, he wrote the Requiem for himself. In it we find none of thesunshine and laughter of "Don Giovanni, " but only a painfully patheticrecord of Mozart's misery, his despair, and his terror. It is indeed astupendous piece of art, and much of it surpassingly beautiful; butthe absorbing interest of it will always be that it is a "humandocu...ment, " an autobiographical fragment, the most touchingautobiography ever penned.
The pervading note of the whole work is struck at the beginning ofthe first number. Had Mozart seen death as Handel and Bach saw it, asthe only beautiful completion of life, or even as the last opportunitygiven to men to meet a tremendous reality and not be found wanting, hemight have written a sweetly breathed prayer for eternal rest, likethe final chorus of the "Matthew" Passion, or given us something equalor almost equal to the austere grandeur of the Dead March in Saul.
