It was great to have our first rehearsal back from winter break last night! Thanks for good work reading through the Duruflé REQUIEM! Here are some resources to help in your personal preparation:

Here is a link to the recording by the Voices of Ascension choir - using the same orchestral accompaniment that we will use (this is the one I was playing last night at rehearsal):

ROSSETTI SONGS
The four Rossetti songs are on a disk made by the Pacific Chorale. Also included on the disk are some of our "old friends" from past seasons; the Effinger Pastorals and Britten Flower Songs.

Finally, here is a link to Cyberbass, a website that has MIDI music files of each of the Duruflé vocal parts, for those who don't have access to a piano (thanks to Helga!)
