If you want a traditionally conceived budget-price Requiem, well sung … superbly played and vividly recorded, Davis's performance has much to commend it.
Davis' approach to the Requiem … contained both tragic grandeur and high drama, with the Dies Irae pointing the way towards the theatrical vividness of some 19th-century settings, but nothing was remotely sentimental of self-pitying.
