Messe de Requiem, Op. 48

The beloved Faure Requiem is presented in a pristine Urtext edition for treble voices, arranged for SSAA, soloists and organ reduction. This arrangement uses a divided soprano section for the upper voices of Faure's original SATB choir, while the tenor and bass lines have been assigned to two-part alto forces. Transposing the lower parts up an octave has been done sparingly, to avoid lower parts crossing the upper parts, while keeping a comfortable range for each voice part. This edition is presented with Latin text exclusively.
