A new performing edition by Masato Suzuki, based on the autograph by Mozart and taking account of earlier completions by Eybler and Sussmayr. He has composed a new "Amen Fugue" to close the "Sequentia", based on the sketch discovered in Berlin in 1960.

"I enjoyed this disc very much and found the expert performances very stimulating. As it's a BIS disc it seems almost superfluous to comment on standards of presentation. The notes are comprehensive and well written and the SACD sound is very pleasing indeed; the recording is open and clear, presenting the performances very faithfully and musically." (MusicWeb Feb 2015)

"The performance is notable for its super-clean orchestral edges and refinement." (BBC Music)
