BERLIOZ: Requiem, Op. 5
When Hector Berlioz unleashes eight pairs of timpani, four brass groups, an enormous chorus and orchestra, the picture of the Last Judgement day is realised with all the power, trepidation and overwhelming vividness music can create. This monumental score also contains many moments of quiet contemplation and lyrical beauty that capture the sacred aspects of the Requiem.
