I'm so glad to have come across this complete Royal Albert performance given by King's College Choir. What a treat to be able to hear their excellent performance of this work. I omitted to congratulate Thomas on his sensitive and self-assured interpretation of Pie Jesu, and he certainly deserved the extended applause which he so graciously acknowledged. His smile said it all. Well done, Thomas.
The Faure Requiem is one of my favorite Requiems. I play the cello and it is lovely to play! This is such a special presentation at Royal Albert Hall! Thank you!
Solo ora sono riuscita ad ascoltare per intero questo capolavoro di Faure. La musica con.tante dissonanze e il testo dal contenuto intenso e terribile mi ricordavano troppo tutti quelli che ho perduto.Poi la bellissima voce del cantante bambino mi ha fatto sognare quel Paradiso dove spero di ritrvarli tutti. Grazie ❤
This requiem is beyond beauty and into the sacred. We need not fear death as its natural passage into the next realm....this music is a fitting accompaniment. We can trust that death is our next way into life everlasting.
We are learning this masterpiece right now in college choir, and in a couple of days I am going to be on audition for the Bass solo. I am trying to sing along with the singer and thats impressive how lightly and at the same time, how deeply he is singing his part. I can hear lots of power and determination in his performance, something that I am still learning to do. At least his breathing is not that hard to learn, but his voice dynamics.....impressive! The boy that sung soprano's solo did a great job! I don't how much time he had to practice, it was so light and ornamental, floating like a butterfly - good job! I even got little bit jealous of his singing... Really well done! Great job! That is a really good performance! Well, i am really here for my solo part, but everyone did a really good job! Especially solos 😅

Beautiful indeed
One of the best performances I've ever heard.
Wie wunderschön! Vielen herzlichen Dank ❤❤❤
La plus belle interprétation qu'il m'ait été donné à entendre. Merci.
This is the finest version of this piece I have ever heard. Absolutely glorious.
100 years today since the death of Gabriel Fauré 🕯️
Thankyou for the music Monsieur
The Pie Jesu was performed at my church during mass today… maybe that’s why!
A gem! Could be the best Faure Requiem I've ever heard. Transfixing. Thank you!

I’ve heard Tom Pickard sing Pie Jesu and it was the most beautiful rendition that I’ve ever heard.
Beautiful beyond words.

Libera Me is such a beautiful piece, my absolute favorite from Faures Requiem. Just a perfect choir piece in my opinion
Really needed to hear this, and see the performance. Absolutely beautiful.
Whatta perfomance! I could listen to this until The Day I die! ☠️👼🏻😇
Superb!

17:11 🥲 The most moving interpretation of Fauré's Pie Iesu that I have heard to date.
Las voces de niños como sopranos y contraltos tienen efecto muy especial, saludos desde Chile ❤
What a smile!!!
Lord, grant eternal rest unto the departed, and let perpetual light shine upon them.
Absolutely beautiful.
Everyone has their preferences.....
I prefer the Willcocks version.
This entire performance sounds rushed.
Too fast
No.
En absoluto
Médiocre. Je crois que c'est dû à la prise de son.
Normalement il n'y a pas de premiers violons avant le Sanctus ...
Le chœur est très beau mais je trouve le mouvement un peu rapide.
Nach meinem Wissen gibt es in der kammermusikalischen Komposition von Fauré überhaupt keine ersten Geigen(!), nur eine(!) Solo-Geige?
Didn't care for this version. Tenors were "tentative"
For such an esteemed and accomplished group a rather low energy and uninspired effort. I wonder.....
