On the final installment of it's Requiem series, the Flemish Radio Choir tackles Poulenc's iconic Stabat Mater (1950) and Alfred Desenclos' Requiem (1963), stunning works which steer clear of the typical Requiem horrors to convey a message of hope. Teaming up with the Brussels Philharmonic, the Flemish Radio Choir and it's acclaimed chief Herve Niquet extract the emotional and rhetorical essence of music which is eminently French, unusually tender, and delicately majestic. Since 1937, the Vlaams Radiokoor has been a reference for vocal music, both in Flanders and in Europe. The voice is the ultimate interpreter of our emotions, and the choir is one of it's greatest ambassadors.
