According to my 1992 copy of Janes All the World's Aircraft all the compressor blades are titanium - I presume that this includes both rotors and stators.

The turbine and stator blades are made of Nimonic alloy as this material is specifically formulated for use at very high temperatures and is not necessary for the compressor.
