Oxford Pro Musica Singers presents a thrilling programme of two of the twentieth Century’s most deeply felt choral masterpieces: Frank Martin’s Mass for Double Choir and Duruflé’s Requiem. Both perfectionists whose music is at once sensuous and transcendent, Martin’s inventive and expressive a cappella writing is the perfect complement to Duruflé’s fusion of spare plainsong, rich harmony and sumptuous organ accompaniment.
