Benjamin Britten: War Requiem

CHARLES DUTOIT, conductor SLOVENIAN PHILHARMONIC ORCHESTRA AND CHOIR KAUNAS STATE CHOIR WIENER SÄNGERKNABEN NADEZHDA PETROVA, soprano IAN BOSTRIDGE, tenor MATTHIAS GOERNE, baritone

War Requiem it is considered one of the most convincing and emotionally charged works of the twentieth century. It was written for the consecration of the new Coventry Cathedral, built to replace its fourteenth-century predecessor, which was destroyed by bombing in the Second World War. The War Requiem juxtaposes the text of the Latin Requiem Mass with extra-liturgical poems by the English war poet Wilfred Owen, offering a vivid portrayal of the horrors of the front in the First World War.
