I believe this is the setting for string orchestra and organ vs. full orchestra. I have experienced the full orchestra live, but actually prefer this performance. It's outstanding.
I have listened to dozens of recordings of Durufle's Requiem, and this is one of the best. I love the setting - the church almost full of choir and orchestra, and a small audience squeezed in at the door and balcony. The sound is magnificent. The orchestra and organ together are a great combination and generate that wonderful wash of sound that we expect from Durufle. The soloist sang beautifully - poignant and tender. Wonderful performance! I wish I'd been there in person
Incredibly moving. Brilliant work.

So far nobody I've seen has topped Filharmonia Narodowa, but this one's close. Would probably be better if half the choir could breathe properly.
Espectacular!!! Felicitaciones!!!
Absolutely beautiful ❤️
