Les Béatitudes (Oratorio)
Album by César Franck & Gächinger Kantorei Stuttgart & Radio‐Sinfonieorchester Stuttgart des SWR & Helmuth Rilling
Les Béatitudes is an oratorio by César Franck, completed in 1879. The large-scale, late-Romantic choral-orchestral work is characterised by rich chromatic harmony, modal inflections and dense orchestral textures and stands as an example of Franck's mature sacred output within late 19th-century French music.
