Requiem of Reconciliation
- Requiem of Reconciliation
The "Requiem of Reconciliation" was a collaborative work written to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the end of World War II. It sets the Roman Catholic mass for the dead in fourteen sections, each written by a different composer from a country involved in the war. It was commissioned by the Bachakademie in Stuttgart, Germany and first performed by the Gachinger Kantorei Stuttgart, the Krakauer Kammerchor and the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra, conducted by Helmuth Rilling. A 2-CD set documenting this performance was released in 1996.
