Claudio Abbado conducts Mozart’s Requiem at Memorial Concert for Herbert von Karajan
In a newspaper interview, Claudio Abbado once said Herbert von Karajan had been “like a father” to him. So for Abbado it was not only a duty but also a matter of personal significance to conduct this memorial concert with the Berliner Philharmoniker at Salzburg Cathedral. The programme featured Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s Requiem.
