About "Fauré: Requiem, Op. 48: III. Sanctus" by Daniel Barenboim
The Sanctus from Fauré's Requiem rises like incense through cathedral light. Barenboim's conducting draws a hushed, hovering choir; the 'Hosanna' unfurls in soft arcs, more consoling than triumphant. Here, the sacred is not thunder but a gentle, luminous breath.
