With Graham Sadler.
5: Requiem Aeternam
In 18th-century France, memorial services were often celebrated with a degree of macabre, theatrical pomp that now seems astonishing. Yet there is nothing ghoulish about Campra's Messe de Requiem, a work of restraint and tender lyricism whose consolatory tone anticipates that of later French settings, notably those by Faure and Durufle. The requiem is performed by Le Concert Spirituel, directed by Herve Niquet. Today's programme also includes movements from Clerambault's
Suite du Deuxième Ton played by Marie-Claire Alain (organ). Repeated next Friday 12.15am
