This 8-minute work set entirely in Latin recounts King David's grief at the death of his son Absalom. Opening with a fiery Piano introduction a solo Tenor emerges from the echoing Keyboard clusters followed by a mournfulchoral response. The music then moves into a molto agitato Dies Irae with angry dissonance and mixed meters eventually resolving into a peaceful and tranquil Requiem Aeternam. A powerful and dramatic work for advancedensembles! Duration: ca. 8:20.
