Directed by Dennis Keene

Organist and Choirmaster of the Church of the Ascension Dennis Keene has dedicated a large part of his career to the music of Maurice Durufle, having conducted all of the French composer's choral works in performance. Here are Durufle's finest sacred works, the 9 soaring, dramatic movements of 'Requiem, Op. 9,' 'Messe 'Cum Jubilo,' Op. 11,' and the lovely short piece, 'Notre Pere.' All orchestra-accompanied with some nice viola, violoncello, horn and harp solos. Vocal solos by Patricia Spence and Francois Le Roux are standouts. The Voices of Ascension is one of our favorite mixed choirs and 'Album' is a wonderful collection of works by the master 20th century sacred composer.
