Setting words from the Missa pro defunctis and the Book of Common Prayer the work gives a new slant to established texts: a beautiful setting of 'Thou knowest Lord' sits alongside the powerful 'Offertorio' driving 'Sanctus' and enchanting 'Pie Jesu'.Deserving of a place among the canon of previous settings Chilcott's Requiem is an elegy for the modern day.
