for SATB accompanied by strings and harp, or organ or pianoFauré's Cantique de Jean Racine has all the emotional appeal and refined elegance that one associates with its composer, and has a cherished place in the repertory of both sacred and secular choirs. The orchestration makes the work suitable for programming with Rutter's edition of Fauré's Requiem.

"Provided with a good singable translation by Rutter himself, this new publication deserves a warm welcome, especially in a year of Fauré celebrations." - Mastersinger
