Gabriel Fauré - Requiem by Ulysses56

Gabriel Fauré 1845 - 1924 Requiem and other choral music Composer: Gabriel Faure Conductor: John Rutter Performer: Stephen Varcoe, John Scott, et al. Orchestra: London Sinfonia [members of] Label: Collegium Audio CD (February 29, 2000) Rip 320KBS Cover and complet leaflets included John Rutter's groundbreaking research and subsequent performing edition of Fauré's beloved Requiem has enabled us to hear the work as the composer originally intended. His first version of the piece included only a chamber orchestra with lower strings, harp, timpani, and organ. Four years later, Fauré added two movements and slightly expanded the orchestration. This is the version that Rutter and his inimitable Cambridge Singers perform here-- and it's a glorious revelation, especially if the only Fauré Requiem you've heard is that for full orchestra, which the composer himself neither created nor approved. Rutter and his singers give us a wonderfully sumptuous yet detailed performance that benefits tremendously from the newly realized clarity of inner lines and from the richly colored orchestral textures On this Cd: 1.Requiem, for 2 solo voices, chorus, organ & orchestra, Op. 48 Composed by Gabriel Faure Performed by London Sinfonia [members of] with Caroline Ashton, Stephen Varcoe, Simon Standage, John Scott, Cambridge Singers Conducted by John Rutter 2.

Thanks so much for this ulysses56!
It's something I'd have to import and I really want to audition something more than a silly 30s clip before paying for the cd.
I am only trickling it down using BitTorrent on OS X - where my client tells me I'm the only peer - but I promise to seed it for a month if you keep it up for another 32 hours.

Beautiful encoding ulysses56. And the notes are very welcome too.
Listening right now!
My favourite is the women only with the organ: Maria, Mater gratiae.
Seeding now for as long as others need to share this beautiful file.

I've been looking for this incredible, unparalleled version of Fauré's Requiem for about 5 years! I used to have it on cassette tape and couldn't remember the details. Can't believe I've found it here. I am ecstatic. Thank you!
