Netherlands Radio Chorus
The Netherlands Radio Chorus under Ed Spanjaard. Faure: Cantique de Jean Racine. Heppener: Del iubilo del core che esce in voce. Durufle: Scherzo; Requiem. Poulenc: Salve Regina.
Ian Skelly introduces French sacred music performed by the Netherlands Radio Chorus with organist Jan Hage, conducted by Ed Spanjaard. The concert was recorded last October in Utrecht. The main work of the evening is Duruflé's Requiem, one of the greatest and most influential sacred works of the 20th century, which at the same time harks back to earlier composition techniques in which the liturgical plainsong Requiem melodies form the backbone of the music.
