Normalement les 1ers violons ne doivent pas jouer avant le Sanctus. Sans doute cela est- il du au petit nombre d'instrumentistes. Une chose est sûre c'est que les voix sont belles. Point n'est donc besoin d'un grand choeur pour interpréter ce superbe requiem. Bravo et merci pour ce partage
I truly love Voces 8, and this Britten is sublime. But in the unison section at 14:15, both women and men, I am hearing some scooping in the voices, perhaps intentional in a “lazy river” way, but I didn’t like it and I didn’t feel that it had any place in the piece. Because they were trying to limit vibrato, perhaps this lent to the issue.
