Requiem (1893 version) And Other Sacred Music

Album by Gabriel Fauré & The Cambridge Singers & City of London Sinfonia & John Rutter

Requiem (1893 version) and Other Sacred Music is an album of sacred choral works by the French composer Gabriel Fauré, centred on the 1893 version of his Requiem. Characterised by serene, lyrical melodies, transparent orchestration and refined choral writing, the music occupies a transitional place in Fauré's output as he moved towards a more introspective sacred idiom and helped shape the later tradition of French sacred music.
