Susan Gritton (Sopran) - Britten Sinfonia - Choir of Trinity College Cambridge // Poulenc's choral music is a deep expression both of his faith and of his unique musical language. In the various motets, the music responds to the composer's studies of Bach, Monteverdi, Palestrina and Gabrieli, but is always stylistically progressive. Prominently featured are Poulenc's distinctive and often ingenious chord progressions. Each motet has its own delightfully etched personality.
