    Looking forward to singing this haunting and profoundly beautiful work with Matthew tomorrow and with our choir next year. Thank you for coming to Wymondham Matthew. 😊

    Haunting and beautiful. Loves the earth.

    This is an amazingly powerful and atmospheric work which our choir are hoping to perform next year. Yes, it's austere, as is the subject, but there are many bars of sheer sublimity which make the hairs on the back of the neck stand up and send shivers down the spine. The cello solo and the tenor drum add yet more layers of texture and complexity to this haunting piece.

    Absolutely love this requiem, it's a breath of fresh air after the Ockeghem, Mozart, Faure, Berlioz, Maurice Durufle, John Foulds, Herbert Howells, Britten, Ligeti, Andrew Lloyd Webber, John Rutter, Bob Chilcott, Zbigniew Preisner, George LLoyd, Michael Walsh, Karl Jenkins, LIigeti, and John Fransden to hear such an original voice in the genre. Would like to contact the composer Matthew Coleridge, does anyone have his contact details? Just listening to the Pie Jesu, it's really beautiful, so tranquil. Am writing my own Requiem for my Doctorate in Sacred Composition with the Johann Heinrich Pestalozzi Christian University, and this requiem has made me re-think mine totally in terms of orchestration and form. Love the silences and the use of the choir and solo Cello, pure magic. The Organ is so powerful in this work, who needs an orchestra like Berlioz or Britten, Matthew gets great orchestral-like sounds and climaxes from the Organ & Timps! The harmony sounds fresh with the added dissonances, reminding me a little of Eric Whitacre. Just adore the Lacrimosa, it's sublime. I wonder if Matthew is an Organist? The kyrie opens beautifully and builds with the use of the Tenor Drum and the polyphony in the voices to a great climax. Love the mode used in the Offertory with the flat 2nd and 6th, giving it an exotic sound!

    A lot of this is very beautiful. I find the heavy drumming in Kyrie intrusive. For me it disturbs the sombre mood.

      @@matthewcoleridge Sorry, I meant the barrel-vaulted space we see between 1 & 2 min. (I stopped watching after this and had sound only. Assumed it would all be the same place!)
