This
version of Cortege and
Litanie by Marcel
Dupré was written
for organ. For upper
intermediate players,
this 8 page composition
is written with 4 sharps
and includes the use of
the pedals. The piece,
initially written for a
small orchestra in 1922,
was created for a play.
Dupré integrated
it into one of his piano
recitals and was later
asked to arrange it for
other instruments. These
scores therefore exist
also arranged for piano,
orchestra (in 4 and 16)
and for the conductor. In
terms of composition, the
piece is divided into
two:
“Cortege,”
which title describes a
solemn procession, begins
in E major and lasts
twice as long as the
introductory theme; and
“Litanie,”
which is describing the
prayer sung during a
procession and which
follows the
“Cortege”
part to then be joined by
it. Marcel Dupré
is a French composer and
virtuoso organist who won
the Prix de Rome in 1914.
He became famous when he
played the work of Bach
in its totality from
memory in 1920. He later
became the professor of
many renowned students at
the Paris Conservatoire
such as Messiaen,
Langlais and Cochereau
among others.

Following
its edition of the
beautiful Messe Sainte
Cecile by Gounod in an
arrangement for Coro SA
and organ (CV 27.025),
Carus presents a further
sacred work by this
composer: his Te Deum for
soli, choir, two harps
and two organs (choir
organ and great organ).
As Peter Kaiser, the
editor, has expressed in
his foreword, this work
from 1886 realizes a
strict, almost ascetic
musical language, an
inward awe and praise of
God.. Score and parts

The Requiem
of Gabriel Faure is now
available in two
versions: in the
symphonic version which
was completed in 1900 and
in a version with small
orchestra of 1889. The
symphonic version of
Gabriel Faure's Requiem,
published in 1901, was
the product of a 13-year
compositional process.
Starting from the
original five-movement
form for strings, harp
and organ, the composer
wrote two additional
movements, one after the
other, and expanded the
instrumentation in
various stages for later
performances. The present
reconstruction of a
version with small
orchestra differs from
other such attempts in
that for the first time
it presents the work not
in a mixed version, but
rather in the unified
form from 1889. This is
distinguished from the
final version both in
musical terms, as well as
through the fact that it
forgoes the use of
flutes, clarinets and
bassoons, while employing
only two horns instead of
four. With a critical
Report with information
about the source
situation and the
edition, and containing
the individual readings
(alternative readings,
etc.). Since in 1889 the
Offertoire was still
without the choral
section the present
edition contains the
Offertoire of the final
version as appendix. Now

Charles
Gounod composed this
Requiem under the impact
of the death of his
four-year-old grandson,
Maurice. According to
information handed down,
while finishing the
details of this work he
was overtaken by death.
It was published
posthumously in various
constellations by his
pupil, Henri Busser, but
the only complete version
from the pen of Gounod is
the version for large
orchestra, which is
published here for the
first time in a critical
edition. Gounod's
Requiem, unlike many
contemporary settings of
the Mass of the Dead, is
not characterized by
darkness and terror.
Rather, with all of its
trepidation - expressed
through a marked
chromaticism - an
atmosphere of hopeful
expectation, of trust in
the grace and equity of
the divine judge
predominates. This
confidence finds its
expression in the choice
of the fundamental key of
C major, which is rather
unusual for a requiem.
The work was given an
impressive performance on
the occasion of the first
anniversary of Gounod's
death in the Parisian
church of
Sainte-Madeleine under
the direction of Gabriel
Fauré and it was
highly acclaimed by the
contemporary press. Score

pupil, Henri Busser, but
the only complete version
from the pen of Gounod is
the version for large
orchestra, which is
published here for the
first time in a critical
edition. Gounod's
Requiem, unlike many
contemporary settings of
the Mass of the Dead, is
not characterized by
darkness and terror.
Rather, with all of its
trepidation - expressed
through a marked
chromaticism - an
atmosphere of hopeful
expectation, of trust in
the grace and equity of
the divine judge
predominates. This
confidence finds its
expression in the choice
of the fundamental key of
C major, which is rather
unusual for a requiem.
The work was given an
impressive performance on
the occasion of the first
anniversary of Gounod's
death in the Parisian
church of
Sainte-Madeleine under
the direction of Gabriel
Fauré and it was
highly acclaimed by the
contemporary press. Score

Requiem under the impact

Maurice. According to
information handed down,
while finishing the
details of this work he
was overtaken by death.

posthumously in various
