Description:
Requiem, 9 sacred concertos for piano solo, trumpet and large chamber orchestra' is the title of the original work of which Henze said: 'These nine instrumental pieces speak of the fears and needs of mankind today; of sickness and death, of love and loneliness.' Three movements of this extremely demanding and complex work - Rex tremendae, Lacrimosa and Sanctus - have here been skilfully arranged for the organ by the composer Moritz Eggert. This arrangement, which is now often played in churches, places great demands upon the musicians who perform it - but they can always be sure of producing a deep impact with these three Requiem movements. A version for trumpet and piano (ED 8548) is currently in production.
