The Requiem was Mozart's final composition. It was commissioned by the widow of the Countess von Walsegg who died in February 1791. After working on the Requiem through October and November however Mozart fell ill and died without completing it. Mozart's widow needing money asked Joseph Eybler to complete the work. Unfortunately he could not finish the work and it was handed over to Franz Xaver Sussmayr. However Sussmayr was a musician of limited capabilities and much of his contribution was in fact a copy of Eybler's work.

Eaglefield Hull and contains the First Sonata in D Minor Op.42 Second Sonata In D Major Op.50 Third Sonata In C Minor Op.56 Fourth Sonata In D Minor Op.61 and the Fifth Sonata In C Minor Op.80 .

One of Verdi's most popular opera La Traviata is based on La Dame aux Camélias (Camille) the novel and play by Alexandre Dumas fils that enthralled Parisian audiences of the 1850s with a stirring portrayal of a beautiful courtesan redeemed by love. With his librettist Francesco Maria Piave Verdi transformed the Dumas story of a passionate ultimately poignant love affair within the intoxicating demimonde of Paris in the mid-1800s to an exciting deeply moving musical drama. La Traviata fortunately survived its dismal first production in Venice in 1853 to become a worldwide favorite treasured by musical artists and audiences alike for the lyric beauty of its arias and ensembles and for the dramatic force and finesse of its orchestral scoring. This full-score edition designed to provide a lifetime of study and enjoyment is reproduced from the authoritative edition prepared for G. Ricordi of Milan. It will afford opera lovers a rare opportunity to study intimately Verdi's genius for operatic composition in the early years of its greatest flowering. Reprinted from the authoritative edition prepared by G. Ricordi Milan.One of his most popular operas from the 1850s.
