In the summer of 1791, an unknown person came to Mozart's house and commissioned him to compose a mass for the dead. The musician, beset by debt, with increasingly fragile health and obsessed with the idea of ​​death, spent his last days working on the score, but never completed it. Thus began the myth of one of the most famous works in history, about which countless stories have been generated halfway between reality and cinematographic fiction. 

The session is led by Eva Sandoval, musicologist, and reporter for Radio Clásica (RNE).
