Composed in 1816 to memorialize the death by execution of King Louis XVI, this Requiem received its premiere on January 21, 1817 under the composer's direction. The C-minor Requiem firmly established Cherubini's position as a major composer on the Paris scene thereafter. This new vocal score is a digitally enhanced reprint of the one first issued around 1860 by C. F. Peters in a piano reduction prepared by the German organist Hugo Ulrich (1827-1872).
