An original and beautiful new guitar transcription by Faure here for guitar duo by Jan Hron. The Grove Dictionary describes Faure as the most advanced composer of his generation in France and notes that his harmonic and melodic innovations affected the teaching of harmony for later generations. He shunned virtuosity in favour of the Classical lucidity of the French masters of the hapsichord. the precisely articulated melodic line of his songs is in the finest tradition of French vocal music. His great Requiem and his Elegie for Cello and Piano have entered the general repertoire. The "Cantique de Jean Racine" op.11 was originally written for mixed choir and piano (or organ) and dedicated to Cesar Franck, it was composed in 1864-5.
