Work introduction
An exciting new evocative classical work commissioned to commemorate the centenary of First World War. It is dedicated to all who lost their lives in The Great War.
Scored for SATB soloists, choir and orchestra, Requiem is crammed full of stirring melodies, complimented by lush harmonic textures, culminating in a work which takes the listener on a dramatic, yet reflective journey.
