André Campra’s Requiem of 1695 is one of the first great settings of the liturgy of the dead in France. It was composed during his time as Kapellmeister at Notre-Dame Cathedral in Paris as a commissioned work in memory of the deceased Archbishop of Paris. The work was so appreciated that from the end of the 18th centu-ry until 1805 parts of it were regularly performed at funerals or memorial services in southern France. Campra envisages four groups of performers: a five-voice Grand Choeur, a two- to three-voice Petit Choeur (which could be drawn from the Grand Choeur), three vocal soloists and an instrumental group designated as a "symphony".
