Product Details


Product Description

Gabriel Fauré composed his Requiem in D minor, Op. 48, between 1887 and 1890. The choral-orchestral setting of the shortened Catholic Mass for the Dead in Latin is the best-known of his large works. Its focus is on eternal rest and consolation. In seven movements, the work is scored for soprano and baritone soloists, mixed choir, orchestra and organ. Different from typical Requiem settings, the full sequence Dies irae is omitted, replaced by its section Pie Jesu which is often used as a 'stand alone' movement for religious occasions, notably funerals and memorial services. The original single soprano line is retained and the ATB voices provide an accompaniment. Effective as a solo quartet but also suitable for larger choral forces.
