Composed by Gabriel Fauré and André Messager during their holidays in Villerville in 1881  Messe Des Pécheurs De Villerville is a mass dedicated to the fishermen of this city located in Normandy. Initially for Female choir Harmonium and solo Violin it was arranged by the authors in 1882 for Female choir and Chamber Orchestra. These scores based on the two manuscripts are the arranged version for Female choir and Piano by Odette Gartenlaub.

Agnus Dei - Fauré This mass is really soft melodious and delicate occasionally reminiscent of the motets by Gounod.
