Requiem, Op. 48, by Gabriel Fauré (1845–1924)
Fauré completed the composition in 1887 at the age of 42. It is his only major work based on a religious text. He aimed to depict a peaceful image of death. In many passages, minor keys from the choir and orchestra glide into evocative major chords, offering a comforting glimpse of heaven.- Performers: Collegiate Church Choir and Orchestra, conducted by Collegiate Church Cantor Nadine Klusacse
