Programme Note
Requiem is a classical work by Karl Jenkins, first recorded and performed in 2005.
In this work, Jenkins interjects movements featuring Japanese Death Poems in the form of a haiku with those traditionally encountered in a Requiem Mass. At times, the Latin text is sung below the text of the haiku, sung in Japanese.
