Berlioz, Requiem - Grande Messe des Morts



In September 1975 Leonard Bernstein celebrated a triumphal return to Paris
after a four-year absence, conducting the Orchestre National de France in
two concerts. One featured exclusively works by Maurice Ravel, the other
the Berlioz Requiem. Both concerts were recorded by Unitel. Bernstein had
the good fortune to be able to conduct the monumental Requiem at the venue
of its 1837 world premiere, the church or St. Louis des Invalides.
