Episode 24: 14024 Berlioz: Grande Messe Des Morts - Requiem, Op. 5

The Grande Messe des morts (or Requiem), Op. 5, by Hector Berlioz was composed in 1837. The Grande Messe des Morts is one of Berlioz's best-known works, with a tremendous orchestration of woodwind and brass instruments, including four antiphonal offstage brass ensembles placed at the corners of the concert stage. The work derives its text from the traditional Latin Requiem Mass. ​ Dominique Beaulieu, conductor ​CMD Philharmonic and Chorus of Paris Purchase the music (without talk) for only $2.99 at: http://www.classicalsavings.com/store/p481/Berlioz%3A_Grande_Messe_Des_Morts_-_Requiem%2C_Op._5.html Your purchase helps to support our show!
