1890 (including an early version of the "Libera Me", which Fauré wrote in 1877), Fauré said of his most famous score: "As to my Requiem, perhaps I have also instinctively sought to escape from what is thought right and proper, after all the years of accompanying burial services on the organ! I know it all by heart. I wanted to write something different."
The young musicians of the Schleswig Holstein Festival approach Fauré's masterpiece with a freshness and innocence that will surely appeal to every listener. |
