Desenclos, Alfred
Requiem
Alfred Desenclos's Requiem reveals to us a peaceful work, nourished by a sincere faith and a profound humanism, in the direct line of Fauré and Duruflé. A master of the vocal art, Desenclos knew how to interweave Gregorian melismas and 'modern' harmonies into a perfectly balanced synthesis. Alfred Desenclos, Grand Prix of Rome, wrote a great deal of chamber music. His Requiem, of modest expression, allows no dramatic passages of any sort; it is inspired by a deep religious sentiment. A work of contemplation and meditation, of sober, clear composition going back to the tradition of the first polyphonists.
