Two very different settings of the Requiem. The Fauré Requiem, one of the most poignant settings of the Requiem Mass using the traditional liturgy, is music to comfort and reassure the faithful, with its overwhelming impression of serenity. Goodall, by contrast, uses a variety of texts for his fresh and unorthodox interpretation, Eternal Light, intended as ‘a Requiem for the living’.
