Ode to Death, H.144

Více o knize

Holst's Ode to Death, composed in 1919, serves as a poignant tribute to friends lost in World War I. The work draws on Walt Whitman's poetry, particularly the final section of "When Lilacs Last in the Dooryard Bloom'd," and features open chords that evoke a sense of infinite space. This haunting choral piece is presented in a newly engraved vocal score by Richard W. Sargeant, Jr., with large scores and orchestral parts also available from Serenissima, enhancing its accessibility for performers.
