The Requiem Mass in C Minor, Cherubini's first, was commissioned for the anniversary of the execution of Louis XVI by the restored French monarchy. The Requiem was highly admired by the public and critics as well as by Mendelssohn, Berlioz and Beethoven. Cherubini sets a solemn tone right from the beginning by using the lower Strings and winds only to accompany the Voices and continues to display his inventiveness with great effectiveness throughout the work. The thunder and lightning of the Dies Irae, the prayerful pianissimo sections of the Agnus Dei accompanied by ostinato, the complete lack of soloists are all remarkable elements of this historically importantwork.Luigi Cherubini was a composer, conductor, teacher, administrator and music publisher who, though born in Italy, dominated the musical world of Paris for nearly five decades. His composing life can be divided very roughly into to phases: the operatic phase during the French Revolutionary period and the equally successful religious music phase at the beginning of the Restoration afterwards. His directorship of the Paris Conservatoire strengthened its position at the peak of musical education on the Continent.

The call and response tradition of Caribbean folk music is the basis for this infectious, cheery carol. Once the congregation hears the energetic beat from the accompaniment, they won’t be able to sit still as the choir swells to a rousing, “Glory to God!â€.

In Cherubini's complete oeuvre and in musical classicism the Credo a 8 occupies an absolutely exceptional place. It represents the summa summarum of Italian vocal polyphony since Palestrina, employing the rich harmonic means of the early 19th century, and at the same time is Cherubini's masterpiece. For chamber choirs in search of new horizons the work is an exciting discovery. Score available separately - see item CA.4008900.
