Collegium Vocale Gent & Royal Flemish Philharmonic, Philippe Herreweghe
The Collegium Vocale Gent, the Royal Flemish Philharmonic and Philippe Herreweghe join forces once again for a monument of the sacred choral repertoire: Anton�n Dvor�k�s Requiem, Op. 89. This work, dating from 1890, is one of those that marked a new phase in the composer�s musical creation, in which he recognized himself �as much a poet as well as a musician�. In addition, this reveals the veritable nature of a composer without constraint, probably being neither a commission nor an occasional work. Philippe Herreweghe offers us an interpretation as dense and concentrated as the writing of this masterpiece requires.
