Specific information available for subscribers.
Richard Maunder (1988) starts from Mozart's autograph, using none of Süssmayr's contributions. Orchestration reworked throughout. Lacrymosa has new continuation which leads to a completion of Mozart's sketch for an Amen fugue. (Süssmayr's Sanctus and Benedictus are included as appendices.)
Maunder's related book,
Mozart's Requiem: On Preparing a New Edition (Oxford, 1988), appeared simultaneously with the edition.
