Duruflé Requiem
Conductor Paul Ellis, organist Simon Clarkson
An atmospheric and uplifting concert for Lent, featuring Duruflé’s famous setting of the Requiem, a favourite of singers and audiences alike, with its use of Gregorian chant set within sumptuous twentieth century French harmonies. Motets by Poulenc and Bruckner (marking his two hundredth birthday), and music by Victoria and Byrd complete an evening of wonderful choral music.
