Re: Fauré requiem

[Pierre Perol-Schneider]

Hi Karl,

Just in case, a manuscript is available at the BnF (http://catalogue.bnf.fr/servlet/biblio?idNoeud=1&ID=42362237&SN1=0&SN2=0&host=catalogue#)

Copies can be orderd there for few euros.

I don't know about the Ms. date though.

Cheers,

Pierre

  Hello list,
I'm trying to make Fauré's requiem, 1893 version:

  http://turkos.aspodata.se/git/musik/GabrielFaur%C3%A9/Op48_Requiem/

but I haven't any source for that version, only found the 1900
version. Anyone got a link or something ?

As Andrew already wrote, the 1893 version (which represents Fauré’s original instrumentation for smaller ensemble; the 1900 instrumentation is not by Fauré) has been unpublished at the time. I know of an edition at Oxford University Press, although I can’t confirm how reliable the text is.
You might have a look at Carus, they normally try to make Urtext editions. Some are very good (in textual matters), some are very dangerous.
Ask BNF for microfiche or scans :-)

The score is as is, but if anyone have tips on how to make it look
better, please advise me.

Can’t do so without PDF :-)
One nitpick: requiem.tex, ll. 207 & 210 have ‘imspl’ in lieu of ‘imslp’

Yours, Simon
