Duruflé has deservedly earned a special place in 20th century French music. A perfectionist with a small repertoire, he was deeply committed to the plainsong liturgy - it was the lifeblood of nearly all his works and his source of musical and spiritual inspiration.
Notes:
Reviews:
"Lovely performances of Notre pere and Quatre motets ... noteworthy for some beautifully crafted choral sound, as well as for William Clements, a former St John's lay-clerk who proves to be an inspired choice of soloist" Gramophone 2000
