Fauré and the French Sacred Tradition
Saturday — May 26, 2012 at 8:00 PM
First Presbyterian Church, Charlottesville
Fauré Requiem, Cantique de Jean Racine, Messe basse
We conclude our season with music written for the great cathedrals
and churches of France. At the heart of this brilliant musical tradition is
the deeply moving music of Gabriel Fauré and his contemporaries in late
19th— and early 20th—century Paris.
Experience the beauty of Fauré's evocative Requiem and his
profound Cantique de Jean Racine, along with works by Poulenc, Saint-Saëns, and Franck.
