1.0 out of 5 stars
Dreadful,
By e. verrillo (williamsburg, ma) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Fauré: Requiem, Op. 48 (Audio CD)
This has got to be the worst recording of Faure's Requiem in existence. The tempo drags like a beached whale, the soloists can't find the pitch no matter how hard they try, and the timing of the orchestra has all the finesse of a two-year-old attempting to dance a tango. In short it's about as convincing as an Imus apology. Avoid this recording like the plague.

Avoid it,
By HB "HB" (Fort Mill, SC) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Fauré: Requiem, Op. 48 (Audio CD)
I cannot believe Columbia (now Sony) ever went to Japan to record Faure. Had they used adequate soloists, it would have been okay. The chorus handles their part quite well, despite serious diction problems. But the soloists are a disaster and the conducting is not at all in the style of Faure. The recording has been around for a very long time. It should have been deleted years ago. In the meantime, do not buy it. There are too many good versions out there.
