This text is one that Jenni has known for years, and one whose sentiment lends itself perfectly to this suite of pieces.
The ethos of the Requiem is to reflect, reminisce and eventually accept the concept and presence of death within our lives, and to contemplate the fact that, regardless of religion, we will all experience death, and can share some common ground in our feelings and reflections upon it. This setting of Do not stand at my grave and weep is one part of Jenni Pinnock’s Requiem.
The music deliberately features very few dynamics and articulation marks, allowing the performers involved to make the piece their own. This is the aura of Do not stand at my grave and weep, featuring close harmonies, suspensions and slightly unexpected harmonies. Choose between a variety of paper finishes and sizes.
