Trotta: Requiem - Tenebrae Choir with Nigel Short, conductor

[@emmanuel.gonzaga]

Heavenly music, awesome execution. I think the highlights are the Offertory, the Lux Aeterna and the In Paradisum, and I'm glad to say this Dies Irae is in my Top 3 with Zelenka's in ZWV 48 and Durighello's. Also, I love the choir too. Thank you very much, Mr. Trotta

This is by far my favorite contemporary piece of music. It inspired me to want to pursue composition a s a career. Everything from the charming melodies and harmonies to the nuances and leitmotifs is perfect. It is truly outrageous how little recognition this gets.

This composition leads me with continuous wonderment on a journey with a choir delightfully taking on the challenges.

I usually detest what is referred to as contemporary classical music; however, this is not an example of music that exists solely to please academics. The use of hocketing between the voices in some sections (Agnus Dei, for example) is truly beautiful to hear. And, of course, the recurring motifs throughout (such as Dies Irae and Libera me being so similar) bear a strong resemblance to a movie soundtrack. 10/10 would recommend.
