Requiems - The Music of Mourning

from Catholic Church · host Catholic Bishops' Conference of England and Wales

Today we're talking about Requiems - the music of mourning - with Martin Foster, Choral Director at St Mary's University College, Twickenham, London. Choral music has become extremely popular in the mainstream and Requiems offer music of great drama and beauty. It may seem odd that music about death should have such an appeal in the modern world so let's explore this a little further... Taken from the www.artofdyingwell.org December 2017 podcast.
