Description
In this work text fragments from the Roman requiem liturgy can be heard; however not 'intact' and not in the correct liturgical order. They appear more as components reminiscent of a progressively realised whole.
Great significance is displayed by the reappearance of specific groups of words – for example, in the middle of the work: "… et lux perpetua luceat …". Through circling reflection the comforting yet deeply disturbing meaning of these words might just become perceptible.
