This French programme with conductor Christian Thielemann presents itself as delicate and passionate. Ernest Chausson’s sumptuous song cycle Poème de l’amour et de la mer with mezzo-soprano Sophie Koch is followed by Debussy’s graceful dances for harp and strings. The climax is the soft, even charming Requiem by Gabriel Fauré, which culminates in a touchingly optimistic vision of the hereafter.
