| |  | Fauré - Requiemand other sacred music
2010 sees the re-release at mid-price of John Rutter’s Gramophone Award-winning 1984 recording of Fauré’s Requiem. The first-ever performance on disc of the work in its intimate original version – famously re-discovered by Rutter in the Bibliothèque Nationale in Paris after a century of neglect – it remains one of the timeless jewels in the crown of the Collegium catologue. Hailed on release as ‘the Fauré Requiem of the future’ (Music Week), Rutter’s performance with the Cambridge Singers and members of the City of London Sinfonia has transformed the way in which we view one of the great works of European sacred music, and remains definitive. “The medium-scale 1893 version of Fauré's spiritual masterpiece finds a loving advocate in John Rutter, with excellent soloists and a lucid-toned choir.” BBC Music Magazine “Faure's Requiem has received many fine recordings, but John Rutter's inspired reconstruction of the original 1893 score, using only lower strings and no woodwind, opened our ears to the extra freshness of the composer's first thoughts.” Penguin Guide, 2011 edition | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |

Roxy Summerfield (organ) The Choir of Christ’s College, Cambridge, David Rowland The latest recording from the critically-acclaimed choir of Christ’s College, Cambridge, directed by David Rowland. A comprehensive selection of beautiful small-scale sacred works written by four late nineteenth- and early twentieth- century French Romantic composers, with works new to the catalogue from Saint-Saens, Fauré, de Severac and d’Indy. Includes several first recordings. “the women's bright timbre gives the group its signature sound - a sound, with its almost nasal characterisatics, that I associate with French singers. These are university undergraduates, I gather, and the youhtfulness of their voices produces a purity that suits this music well...The several solo contributions (entirely from the women) are beautiful, and sung with humility.” International Record Review, February 2013 | | | Usually despatched in 4 - 5 working days. |

| |  | Fauré: Requiem
The choir academy of the Schleswig-Holstein Music Festival was founded by its director Rolf Beck in 2002. Young singers from all over Europe, South Africa and South America meet each year and perform the works which they have rehearsed at the academy. The choir has toured all over the world and here brings its expertise to the beautiful choral music of Fauré. “This live performance under Rolf Beck finds the Schleswig-Holstein Festival Chor Lubeck making some delicious sounds at times, ably supported by the Ensemble Orchestral de Paris, but there is not much that sticks for long in the memory. Baritone David Wilson-Johnson is in typically fine voice...The inclusion of Cantique de Jean Racine and a couple of motets is welcome.” BBC Music Magazine, November 2011 ** “his reading is characterised by extreme restraint, greatly assisted by the softly comfortable acoustic of Rendsburg's Christkirche...but this performance is both expansive (as in the Introit) and extremely intimate (as in a deliciously affectionate Agnus Dei)...Wilson-Johnson mingles majesty with gracefulness while Chiyuki Okamura produces a most enchanting performance of the "Pie Jesu".” Gramophone Magazine, October 2011 “[Wilson-Johnson's] Libera me' is noble and well projected...At its best - the pure soprano line at the start of the 'In Paradisum', for instance - Rolf Beck conducts a straightforward performance that has some admirable moments in which he teases out orchestral details, as at the climax of the Agnus Dei, where the horns sound splendid.” International Record Review, July/August 2011 | | | (also available to download from $10.50) | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days.
