«Mors et Vita» is the oratorio by Charles Gounod, released in 1992 by EMI Classics on a double CD.
Sacred trilogy developing the cycle of death, judgment and life, with choral and orchestral writing characteristic of Romanticism. This version brings together four vocal soloists, the Orfeón Donostiarra choir and the Orchestre du Capitole de Toulouse under the direction of Michel Plasson, in a reading that alternates solemnity and lyricism.
The recording, made in 1992, features Christoph Kuhlmann on organ and the Orfeón Donostiarra prepared by José Antonio Sainz; each CD exceeds 77 minutes.
Suitable for fans of classical music and the Romantic oratorio, as well as large choral ensembles.
