This is the classic recording of Fauré's Requiem. The soloists are on absoloutely top form - Chilcott gives an electrifying performance. And Sir David Willcocks demonstrates why he's such a legend - the sensitivity, drama, and musicality he injects into this recording is immense. If you have only one recording of this work, make sure it is this one.

Spike Milligan, of all people, said that he couldn't imagine music being more beautiful than Faure's Requiem. John Peel, of all people, included the Pie Jesu from this recording amongst his favourite records.
So who am I to argue? The best recording of the most beautiful music. Sounds about right to me.

I have known this recording for over forty years since I first sang the piece in my school choir and since as the baritone soloist, and I have never found one to match it. The pure, cool sound of the King's College trebles is ideal; there is none of the distracting edge or unsteadiness too often encountered in rival versions - surprisingly, even in the recording on the Regis label by David Hill conducting the normally excellent Westminster Cathedral Choir - and Willcocks knows exactly how to pace the proceedings and shade the dynamics. Treble soloist Robert Chilcott sings divinely, dead on the note without gulps or scoops, while John Carol Case's plaintive baritone hits just the right tone of entreaty.
The sound is remarkably clean despite the resonant acoustic. This is still the best version available.
