"Tortelier captured the elegance of 
Faurés Requiem with balance, tone and tempo,  
but it was the phrasing of the violins and  
the Mendelssohn Choir of Pittsburgh that captured me....  
and the rounded, unforced singing and  
the lambent tone of the voices prepared by director  
Betsy Burleigh brought out the goosebumps."
