{"product_id":"afw-48018952","title":"Requiem Opus 48","description":"(2004, 55 minutes)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKarl Jenkins' \u003ci\u003eRequiem\u003c\/i\u003e sets the traditional Latin text of the Requiem mass, including the extra movements included by Fauré and Duruflé – \u003ci\u003ePie Jesu\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eIn paradisum\u003c\/i\u003e. These are interspersed with haiku “death” poems (sung in Japanese) whose delicate, epigrammatic texts provide a peaceful commentary on the liturgical words. The result is a deeply moving expression of spirituality, whose musical tying together of different cultures provides a link that is highly appropriate to the modern world. This powerful book will appeal to choirs wanting to sing an unusual but appealing and effective piece: the full scoring of the work includes a part for Japanese flute (shakuhachi) and an array of unusual drums.","brand":"Boosey \u0026 Hawkes","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50547567034447,"sku":"AFW-48018952","price":17.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0686\/1271\/8671\/files\/AFW-48018952.jpg?v=1790678137","url":"https:\/\/amadeussheetmusic.com\/products\/afw-48018952","provider":"Amadeus Sheet Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
