the Requiem by recording one Requiem from each century beginning in the 15th with the Requiem
by Johannes Ockeghem (Part 1 CYP1648) up to the present day. (The Requiem by Pierre
Bartholomee will be released later in the year). The whole project performed by the Laudantes

| |  | Campra: Messe de Requiem
The Monteverdi Choir & English Baroque Soloists, John Eliot Gardiner It is not known when or for what occasion Campra composed his Messe de Requiem, although the date 1722 is generally accepted as the most accurate. The structure of the Mass is by no means typical, there is no "Dies Irae", and where another composer might have set the choir blazing in the "Sanctus", Campra writes a graceful pastoral with flutes. The “Post-Communion” momentarily rejoices and settles on major-key fade out, only to return to the minor at the last minute. There is little in the way of counterpoint or convention, making this mass truly unique and highly underrated. | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |
