Faure Requiem Op.48 / Durufle Requiem Op.9
: :The chorus is at center of Shaw's reading of the score, presumably the more lightly scored 1893 version that Fauré, himself created (Telarc does not specify). The account flows very well, and the work of both soloists is highly satisfying, particularly Judith Blegen's airy soprano in Pie Jesu. The recording dates from 1985-86 and is one of Telarc's best, with excellent presence overall and real bass in the organ. --Ted Libbey

In addition to three concerti the composer wrote for cello, there are some fascinating transcriptions. The Largo violin solo from the 'Winter' concerto of the Four Seasons is here beautifully played on cello, ...
