About
Herreweghe's 1990 performance was the first modern reading of Gilles' celebrated Requiem from manuscript, shorn of
Andre Campra's beefed up orchestration, and very fine it is. In the style of the French Grand Motet, much of the singing is given to soloists and quite florid - as is the choral work.
