The simplified, pared-down textures of this revived Requiem were a revelation, and seemed to add, rather than detract from the work's power to move. The Oxford University Press Choral Classics series has continued to be a vehicle for Rutter's work as editor and to showcase interesting historical curiosities ... Faure's economical interweaving of the vocal lines seems only to magnify the music's poignancy and limpid purpose. Matthew Greenall, The Singer, April 2004
