Salieri's Plan to Kill Mozart, Explained：with your own hands
Salieri isn't just confessing a murder fantasy. "I must achieve his death" is a composer's plan to turn Mozart's funeral into his own masterpiece — a Requiem he can hold up to God as proof he was chosen too, and to silence the God who never answered him.
あらすじ
In the asylum, Salieri tells Father Vogler how he finally found his revenge. He will secretly commission Mozart's death Mass, then have him killed and perform the Requiem over the coffin himself. He pictures all Vienna in the cathedral, silenced by music everyone believes only God could have written.

What's really going on
Strip the drama away and this is a confession about authorship. Salieri does not simply want Mozart gone; he wants the Requiem — the music the world will believe came from heaven — to be signed 'Antonio Salieri.' His fantasy ends not at the grave but in front of God: "Salieri has been touched by God at last... and God forced to listen!" The murder is secondary, almost an administrative step. What troubles him is that fantasy and deed are different things: "The only thing that worried me was the actual killing." He can stage the funeral in his head, but the hands-on part is where the plan becomes a crime.

このシーンについての質問
Why does Salieri want to commission Mozart's Requiem and then kill him?
Because the Requiem would let Salieri claim the one thing he wants most: a masterpiece that proves God touched him instead of Mozart. Killing Mozart is how he takes the music for himself and stages his revenge.
Why does Salieri say God would be forced to listen?
In his fantasy, the Requiem is so sublime that all Vienna will believe Salieri was finally chosen by God. If God cannot stop the performance, Salieri wins the argument he has been having with heaven.
Why is the actual killing the only thing that worries him?
Dreaming about a murder costs nothing; doing it with his own hands is a different thing entirely. Salieri can imagine the funeral and the music, but he has no idea how a man actually kills someone.
Is Salieri's plan really about Mozart, or about God?
Mostly about God. Mozart is the instrument; the Requiem is Salieri's message to heaven. He wants the world to hear that he, not Mozart, was the one who deserved the gift.
