2 8 Sincerely, JR. Great list, Stephen. I understand your decision to exclude Faure’s Requiem, it does try to be a “kinder, gentler” Requiem, but when I lose a friend or loved one, that’s the music I inevitably turn to as I work through my grief. This is why I have always thought that Faure’s Requiem is the best I have ever heard–and I have several recorded versions in my collection.

Camille Saint-Saëns is generally considered a second-rate composer, and he is known today primarily for pieces like his “Organ” Symphony and his “Carnival of the Animals.” His status as an unbeliever makes him an unlikely candidate for composing a Mass for the Dead.
