I first heard Fauré's Requiem when I was fourteen. At that time, my entire perception was focused on the creativity of one of the Viennese classics, the creator of the most famous mass of consolation - Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.

The album "Rock Symphonies," which features this interpretation, is an example of a wonderful combination of classical music with contemporary rock. Garrett experiments with different musical genres, simultaneously creating something new and unique. "Toccata and Fugue in D minor" becomes, in his performance, not only a tribute to Bach but also a new opportunity for younger generations to discover this piece.
