| Who is your favorite choral composer? |
|
Mine is Mozart, followed very closely by J.S. Bach. I recently sang the alto solos for the Coronation Mass. We had a kick-ass quartet of top-notch singers.

| 2. Ah, I just missed Faure's Requiem by being gone this semester. |
|
It's often paired with the Durufle Requiem, which we did last year.
My favorite piece is The Chichester Psalms by Leonard Bernstein. Interesting that it isn't a Mozart piece, huh? I don't know much Bernstein, so it would be silly for me to say that he is my favorite composer. I know a lot more Mozart.
