Sung at thefunerals of Rameau and Louis XV, more than 50 years after the composer's death,Gilles' Requiem has gained a permanent place in the repertoire, though thereare only 2 other versions available on disc. This reissue of a 1989 recording is therefore doubly welcome - both inits own right, and as a showcase for (among others) soprano Véronique Gens,whose career has recently taken off in a big way.
