Though timed for the birth month of its eponymous composer, the Toronto Symphony Orchestra’s Mozart@260 Festival culminated with a masterpiece associated with the composer’s death in 1791, not his birth in 1756: the sold-out festival, held January 15-23, climaxed in semi-staged performances of the Mozart Requiem. Bernard Labadie led the Toronto Symphony, choral groups, and vocal soloists. The production featured stage direction by Joel Ivany and lighting by Kevin Lamotte.
