I fell in love with this piece 45 years ago, soon after my "discovery" of Britten when I was 33/34. This moves me powerfully, and is one of Britten's (many) incomparable masterpieces.

I can't stop listening to it. It's heartbreakingly beautiful.

One of my favorite pieces of music, very well done.

There's the even more devastating passage in the War Requiem based on this ..
