Product Description

This is an outstandingly atmospheric piece of music, the final part of Holst's choral work 'Ode to Death'.  Holst composed this work in response to the First World War.  He dedicated it to his musical friend Cecil Coles and "the others" who were killed in that war.  The breath-takingly beautiful tune is supported by other-worldly harmonies and an unusual 7/4 rhythm to create music of immense presence.  It works really beautifully on the organ: a wonderful piece for recitals, meditative services, remembrance or to play on your own for the sheer reward offered by this exceptional music.  Also a great piece for demonstrating different solos and effects of the organ, including a great outlet for the Vox Humana, solo Flute and quiet Strings.  Even bells, if you're lucky enough to have a set on your instrument!
