May be used as a choral score, together with Carus 70.302 (version for strings) or with Carus 70.303 (orchestral version). Gabriel Faure composed the Cantique de Jean Racine in 1865, the prizewinning work for the completion of his musical training. The composer expanded the original scoring for choir and organ by adding a string accompaniment; the version with orchestra was first performed in 1906. As a text Faure chose a French adaptation by Jean Racine of the Latin hymn "Consors paterni luminis." The Cantique already displays the characteristics of an expressive choral setting typical for Faure and together with the Requiem, composed considerably later, it is among the most popular works of the composer. Score available separately - see item CA.7030100.
