NEW EDITION of Gabriel Faure's "REQUIEM"
A
new orchestration of this beautiful work is now available for hire and
is ideally suited for choirs with limited financial resources.
This
orchestration requires 4 violins, 2 violas, 2 cellos, 1 double bass,
organ, 1 horn and harp and is a great alternative to the more expansive
original orchestration.
This new version (PMP 178) has been performed by the Central Coast Chorale and was received with great enthusiasm.
Other works by this great french composer are:
Cantique de Jean Racine (PMP 177)
Madrigal (PMP 184)
