Requiem, Op. 48
Two masterpieces of late 19th-century French sacred music make up the programme of this concert-hall celebration: Gabriel Fauré’s exquisitely beautiful Requiem and the Clovis Mass by the elderly Charles Gounod. Between the movements of the latter work, the audience will also become acquainted with four further gems from the Gallican tradition of church music, with one composition each by Alexandre Guilmant, Louis Aubert, Camille Saint-Saëns and Théodore Dubois. The performers could hardly be better versed; this spiritual musical world is the natural home of Hervé Niquet and his historically informed ensemble, Le Concert Spirituel. Alongside the highly talented French baritone Jean-Christophe Lanièce, the other vocal soloist of the evening will be the wonderful Hungarian soprano Emőke Baráth, who also featured on the splendid 2024 recording that contains most of the works featured in this concert programme.
