Arranged for SATB choir, two keyboards, strings, and optional harp, with soprano, tenor (optional) and baritone soloists, this fresh and unorthodox interpretation reflects on the words of the Latin Mass by juxtaposing them with poems in English. This final movement of the Requiem is set for SATB chorus and two or three soloists. Lilting triads begin the movement. The “Lux Aeterna” is set for soloists with choir accompaniment. There is a restatement of “Lead, Kindly Light” from movement 4, transformed a bit, for soloist with choir accompanying, then the choir sings this material in unison in a powerful, climactic passage. “Requiem aeternum” from the first movement is heard again here with a gently pulsing accompaniment, and the work ends quietly “Luceat eis.” Duration 8:59
