Presented live from the Royal Albert Hall ,
London, by Sarah Walker. Andre Campra was a leading musical figure at the French court in the early 18th century. His Requiem is a quietly intense setting - a gentle precursor of the later settings by Faure and Durufle. The second half of this concert promises to match in exuberance the austerity of the first half. Rameau's operas contain some of the most spirited dance music of the 18th century. Earlier this year, when John Eliot Gardiner 's professional forces first encountered the Buskaid Soweto String Ensemble as well as dancers from both South Africa and France, the critic of Le Monde wrote that they "wove a poetic fantasy that was beyond compare." Katharine Fuge (soprano), Julia Doyle (soprano), Anders Dahlin , Marc Molomot and Nicholas Mulroy (tenor), Lawrence Wallington and Matthew Brook (basses), Buskaid Soweto String Ensemble and Dance for All, director Rosemary Nalden , Monteverdi Choir, English Baroque Soloists, Compagnie Roussat-Loubek, conductor John Eliot Gardiner Campra Messe de Requiem
