Abstract
Arturo Toscanini conducted Verdi’s Requiem 29 times with ten different orchestras between the years 1902 and 1951. Of these 29 performances, six of them were recorded between the years 1938 and 1951 with three different orchestras. An analysis of the Tuba Mirum section of this work was done to determine musical element consistency between different dates of performance and different orchestras. The Tuba Mirum section was selected because of the amount of control a conductor has to have over their musicians in order to obtain maximum musical effect. The musical elements considered in the analysis were rhythmical consistency, tempo, articulation, and dynamics. The amount of time to perform this section of music was also investigated.
