About

Accentus chamber choir, one of Naïve's most successful artists, turns 20 in 2012. Naïve is contributing to the celebrations by releasing two special products: this 5 CD set and a compilation gathering 20 vocal jewels, released on May 1st, Best 20.

There may be a more profoundly beautiful recording of Fauré's Requiem out there, but if so, I've not heard it.… Equilbey shapes and caresses every single phrase, every line, every note with the kind of loving care few conductors ever lavish on such a well known and technically undemanding score. The result is a genuinely revelatory reading.” - Gramophone

Performed with intense conviction by Accentus and heard to ideal advantage in the acoustic of the Arsenal de Metz, this is music that communicates through its very restraint, and is further evidence of Pascal Dusapin's distinctive creative voice” - Gramophone

Includes other works as well as Transcriptions.
