Content

  • This organ reduction is intended to use instead of
  • the original orchestral accompaniment; it is
  • compatible with new edition of Requiem da Camera
  • by Christian Alexander (BH 12681). The organ
  • reduction was done by Francis Jackson, doyen of
  • English cathedral organists and titulaire at York
  • Minster for 36 years. Jackson sympathetically
  • recreates the chamber orchestra scoring for a
  • three-manual organ. Ingeniously, the manual
  • couplings (II to III, II and III to I) are
  • unaltered throughout, with pedal coupled to
  • manuals as appropriate. Detailed registrations are
  • not indicated as these are best left to the
  • performer, taking into account the unique
  • circumstances of the particular instrument, size
  • of choir and acoustic setting at each individual
  • performance.The user-friendly landscape score
  • includes at least one principal vocal line cued
  • throughout, and a cappella choral passages are
  • reproduced in full.Requiem da Camera was Finzi's
  • first extended work; only the instrumental prelude
  • was performed during his lifetime. The other three
  • movements are settings of poems by John Masefield,
  • Thomas Hardy and Wilfrid Wilson Gibson. Scored for
  • baritone solo, small chorus (or SATB soli) and
  • chamber orchestra, the wellspring of the Requiem's
  • composition was the death, during active service
  • in 1918, of Finzi's composition teacher, Ernest
  • Farrar. The work may also be viewed as a metaphor
  • - the permanence of the land, and a centuries-old
  • pattern of rural life following the rhythm of the
  • turning seasons, contrasted with the violent havoc
  • and destructive dislocation wrought by war. A
  • reflective and poignant work particularly suitable
  • for performances commemorating the tragedy of
  • World War I.
