First heard as a broadcast over French Radio on All Souls Day, Duruflé’s Requiem “is not only the composer’s main calling card but has kept its place among the most-beloved choral compositions of the 20th century.” (Los Angeles Master Chorale) Frank Martin’s Mass is “richly sonorous and emotionally satisfying.” (Chicago Chorale) The composer said, “I consider it… as being a matter between God and myself.” And the Cantique? “Everything you love about the Fauré Requiem in five extraordinary minutes!” (Eric Holtan)
