When Mozart heard Bach’s motet ‘Singet dem Herrn’ in Leipzig in 1789, he cried out ‘Now, there is something one can learn from!’ He died on 5 December 1791 having completed just two thirds of the musical material for his Requiem. 25 years later, Schubert wrote in his diary in October 1816: ‘As though from afar, the magic notes of Mozart’s music still gently haunt me.’ That same month he completed his Fifth Symphony, the most Mozartian of all his orchestral works.
