'Requiem' was commissioned by Bryce and Cynthia Somerville. The first movement 'Requiem aeternam' is available separately: NOV296956.
'a contemplative work of profound beauty' and a 'significant contemporary Requiem' Robert Hugill (Planet Hugill)
'a masterpiece' - Roderic Dunnett (Church Times)
'The 'Sanctus' is a sophisticated, extended movement, with a thrilling climax ('Hosanna!'); the 'Pie Jesu' is an exquisite miniature, with a most affecting simplicity; the 'Agnus Dei' is a movement of suppressed passion, suffused by a rather Gallic melancholy. This Requiem will be a major addition to the concert and liturgical choral repertoire' John Quinn (Seen and Heard)
