At the end of 1784 Mozart was for the first time admitted to a Viennese Masonic lodge. In 1785, he composed a Masonic funeral music. In his own catalogue of works, Mozart listed the work as composed on the death of brothers Mecklenburg and Esterházy.
This short but extremely poignant work is often seen as stepping-stone between the Great Mass in C minor and the Requiem. Although the C minor key gives the piece an unquestionable funereal character, its conclusion is serene, thanks to the final C major chord.
This arrangement of Mozart's Masonic Funeral Music for piano duet is perfect for enjoying it at home, for study/analysis purposes, for conducting classes.
