Gabriel Foret was a student of the great composer Camille Saint-Saëns during his studies at the school attached to the school of church music, which was the basis for their closeness later. Faure composed in almost all musical genres popular in his time. His masterpiece is considered to be the "Requiem" (op. 48, 1887-1890), written for soloists, choir and orchestra, which had three author's editions. The lyricism and intimacy of Fauré's Requiem was unusual for this spiritual genre, especially in the original, orchestral version (1888), which was extremely chamber in composition and sound.
