Description/Reviews: 

The result is his Rock Requiem. A piece for rock band and singers. Mixing Latin text with English liturgy, Hindu prayer and new divine writings, the piece is rooted in the Christian music tradition, but reaches out to those of other faiths, and those with no faith. At core it is about how epic music can lead us to redemption, and save us from the pain of grief. It is an urban, 21st Century Requiem.
