Reviews
This book contains easy abridged selections from Faure's Requiem. It is difficult to reproduce the requiem when it is not sung, as well as make it simple to play. This book is mostly successful in the attempt to do both. The basic melodies are present in this adaptation. The interpretation and nuance must be added by the person playing the pieces. I would recommend the performer have familiarity with the requiem as it is sung before using this book in order to interpret each selection well. I have seen downloads of single relatively simple piano selections for not much less than this entire book costs. For a budget-friendly, simple piano approach to Faure's Requiem, I recommend this book. It is also helpful for performing with a time constraint, for example, when a 1 1/2 minute offertory is needed.
