War Requiem Op. 66
Choral Score
It Is Regarded By Many As His Masterpiece In The Non Operatic Sphere: Britten's War Requiem, Premiered In 1962 To Celebrate The Opening Of The New Cathedral At Coventry, Built To Replace The One Destroyed During The War. Britten Used The Opportunity To Write A Milestone Of Post War Music History: In Memory Of The War Dead He Combined Texts Of A Latin Mass With 20th Century Poems And Set His Deeply Held Pacifist And Humanitarian Beliefs To Music. The Requiem's Direct Style Has Overwhelmed Audiences For More Than Fifty Years.
