DVDs by Poulenc

Poulenc wrote his ""Stabat Mater,"" a hauntingly passionate work, after visiting the sacred shrine of the Black Madonna of Rocamadour. He made a pilgrimage to her remote chapel in the south of France after a good friend of his was hilled in a car accident. Poulenc's journey profoundly changed his life and work as a composer. Recorded here in an unrivalled performance by the combined choirs of St. John's, Clare and Gonville and Caius Colleges, Cambridge, with the BBC Philharmonic conducted by Christopher Robinson, with soprano Judith Howarth. Like the ""Stabat Mater,"" the ""Litanies a la Vierge Noir"" is also inspired by the Black Virgin of Rocamadour, and is sung on this disc by the choirs
