Requiem in G minor
| Period: | Baroque |
| Musical form: | mass |
| Text/libretto: | Latin mass |
Requiem for four voices, written in the voval and instrumental concertato tradition. Instrumental virtuosity, especially in the instrumental solo sections, marks clearly how independently some composers were considering the role of the orchestra in their requiems.
