"This performance of Mansurian's Requiem, completed in 2011, makes a fine place to start with the series ... The result is an unusually deep fusion of Eastern and Western traditions ... ECM's engineering work from the Jesus-Christus-Kirche, Dahlem, Berlin, is extraordinary".

"Mansurian's sound-world is notably clean: time and again he juxtaposes orchestral unisons and stark instrumental effects with plainchant, yet burnished splendour is the result. Throughout the work there is a sense of musical worlds colliding and - in the Agnus Dei, where all emotion is washed pure - finally coalescing, in a symbolic meeting between heaven and earth. The performance has singular grace and power".

"På det nye Mansurian-album hører man et Rekviem til minde over de halvanden million armenere, der blev dræbt af tyrkerne i folkemordet 1915-17. Rekviemmet er komponeret i 2011 og er inspireret af oldkirkelig musik ... og af armenske folketraditioner ... Det er en velfungerende komposition ... ECM's velkendte lydæstetik gør albummet til en meget smuk musikalsk oplevelse".

"Insgesamt gleitet diese Musik grösstenteils ohne Hast am Hörer vorbei, ist aber trotz der dezenten Grundhaltung kein Ohrenschmeichler".

"Equally known as a composer of films scores as for the concert hall, Tigran Mansurian follows a stylistic path drawing on aspects of modernism and minimalism, though without being beholden to either ... His Requiem ... seeks a fine balance between the high emotion of the Catholic Requiem and inner communing of the Orthodox Hokehankist ... Alexander Liebreich conducts an account fully recognising the premises of this piece ... Those coming anew to this rarely predictable composer could well begin here".
