"Regarding Faure", the result of a 1995 conference on Faure's important contribution to classical music, was written by Tom Gordon, artistic director the Ensemble Musica Nova and a professor in the Department of music at Bishop's University in Quebec. Also included are contributions from some of the world's most renowned Faure scholars including Jean-Michel Nectous, Robert Orledge, Edward Phillips, and Steven Huebner. With a lifetime that spanned the developments of Chopin, Debussy, Schoenberg, and Stravinsky, the great French composer Gabriel-Urbain Faure (1845-1924) lived during one of the most interesting periods in music history, yet steered a course uniquely his own. Exploring the composer's role as an educator, critic, composer, and advocate for French music, "Regarding Faure" is critical, analytical, and interdisciplinary in its approach to understanding Faure's prodigious works and life. His numerous compositions include more than 100 songs (known as "melodie", or French art songs); dozens of solo piano works (nocturnes, barcarellos, impromptus); an opera; and religious choral works, which included another of his best known pieces Messe de Requiem
