The central focus will be a performance of Faure’s Requiem, accompanied by his Cantique de Jean Racine and John Rutter’s setting of Panis Angelicus by Franck. Continuing our theme of music by French composers, we are including pieces by two women - Mel Bonis (1858-1937) and Lili Boulanger (1893-1918).
