\nMozart died after writing the series of sixteen ascending chords
\nin the chorus. At that point, the concert hall was darkened to reveal a photo-facsimile
\nprojected onto a large screen, taken from Mozart’s own manuscript of those precious
\nfinal measures. The chorus then sang Ave Verum Corpus In Memoriam.<\/p>\n
