The Sixteen
Academy of St Martin in the Fields / Harry Christophers
The result of a brand new collaboration between two of the finest modern day exponents of classical music, this exquisite disc brings fresh lifeblood to Fauré's peerless Requiem and injects imaginative invention and poetic phrasing into two of Mozart's choral masterpieces.
Recorded at the 2007 Mostly Mozart Festival at London's Barbican Hall, this disc reflects the unique live experience of a concert performance that captivated its audience.
Conducted by Harry Christophers, The Sixteen and the Academy of St Martin in the Fields are joined by four fine soloists for this recording.
"...the singers of The Sixteen evoked an unearthly expressiveness. Fauré once said: 'here it was as if we had stumbled upon some private memorial, and caught a haunting glimpse of paradise.'"
