about

With the death of my parents a couple of years ago( and within four months of each other), I was attempting to seek solace in music ( not my own !) and found it really difficult to find something that was appropriate.

If it was a song I knew, it was connected to other memories.
Some songs were happy, some sad but not appropriate ( wrong lyrics etc)

With the deluge of feelings one has at the passing of parents ( or others) we need time for contemplation and to express grief.

So, I wrote three connected 25 minute pieces of music that, although electronic and modular in nature, contained both gravitas and enlightenment in an orchestral type setting... a small contribution to try to fulfil that musical void.

Requiem for the actual passing and the time of the funeral.
