"Now that the work is available with a chorus of more polished technique and far more reliable chording, one which uses its words expressively and whose dynamic range is well served by the engineers, it makes an infinitely more telling effect...Michele Lagrange brings tenderness—if not quite matching Regine Crespin's melting quality on the Pretre recording—to the solo part...

It was to the black Virgin of Rocamadour, to whom Poulenc commended Berard's soul, that he had earlier addressed the Litanies he had written on hearing of the death in a car crash of his friend Ferroud (a much neglected composer). This is an altogether starker work, its austere choral writing punctuated by powerfully pungent chords until peace is gradually found towards the end... this too is well sung and played." • Gramophone, July 1985
