Hey, no way! My university choir is working on Durufle's Requiem right now! It's a beautiful piece. I don't really like the Dies Irae (and its position nestled in the Libera Me), but the rest is fantastic. In Paradisum is transcendent.

Duruflé's is her favorite.

I don't know much about choral music, but think requiems might be my favorite. The ones I've heard really show off the range of emotions a choir can convey in one unified concert.
