The sacred sound, full of transparency and compassion, left behind by Fauré.
This definitive recording portrays a serene requiem that views death as "sleep," depicted with overwhelming beauty in its chorus and orchestral arrangement.
The pure yet dignified melodies soothe the listener's heart. This album delivers a supreme musical experience, a culmination of deep spirituality rooted in a long tradition and refined harmonic beauty.
