Score available separately - see item CA.2100400. Requiem, Mourning, death. 2 flutes part. Language. Latin. Composed 1695. 8 pages. Duration 50 minutes. Published by Carus Verlag. CA.2100421. ISBN M-007-03043-8. With Language. Latin. Requiem, Mourning, death. The Requiem was composed during Campra's tenure as the director of music at the cathedral of Notre Dame. It was commissioned for a service in memory of the deceased Archbishop of Paris. At the end of the 18th century it became a tradition in southern France to perform movements of Campra's Requiem during funerals or at memorial services. There is evidence from as late as 1805 which verifies this practice. The scoring of this work is remarkable, in that it calls for four groups of performers. a five-voice "Grand Choeur," a 2-3 voice "Petit Choeur," three vocal soloists as well as an instrumental group designated as a "Symphonie.
