Approved

Poulenc's vocal music was strongly marked by his conversion to the Catholic faith in 1936. After setting the Misse brevis (1937) to music, he returned to writing sacred music to Latin texts, composing four Lenten motets in 1938–1939. Using modern harmonic means, he transformed the gloomy text of the Holy Week responsories, which speak of fear, disappointment and loss, into an expressive image of man's confrontation with suffering and transience.

Duruflé began composing the Requiem as early as World War II, and completed the work in September 1947. He used the Latin text of the Requiem Mass, omitting some parts , following the example of Gabriel Fauré's Requiem , and structuring it into nine movements. At the time of the commission, he composed an organ suite using themes from Gregorian chants. He also included his sketches for this piece in the Requiem , which uses many themes from the Gregorian Mass for the dead, so the work is calm and meditative in its musical expression.

English

Poulencovo vokalno glasbo je močno zaznamovala njegova spreobrnitev h katoliški veri leta 1936. Po uglasbitvi Misse brevis (1937) se je vrnil k pisanju sakralne glasbe na latinska besedila, ko je v obdobju 1938–1939 uglasbil štiri motete za postni čas. Mračno besedilo responzorijev velikega tedna, ki govorijo o strahu, razočaranju in izgubljenosti, je z uporabo sodobnih harmonskih sredstev prelil v ekspresivno podobo človekovega soočenja s trpljenjem in minljivostjo.

Duruflé je s komponiranjem Rekviema pričel že v času druge svetovne vojne, delo pa je dokončal septembra 1947. Uporabil je latinsko besedilo maše zadušnice, pri čemer je po zgledu Rekviema Gabriela Fauréja izpustil nekatere dele in ga strukturiral v devet stavkov. V času naročila je komponiral orgelsko suito z uporabo tem iz gregorijanskih koralov. Svoje skice za to skladbo je vključil tudi v Rekviem, ki uporablja številne teme iz gregorijanske maše za umrle, zato je delo v svojem glasbenem izrazu umirjeno in meditativno.
