The entire work, consisting of five scenes for a cappella double chorus, is extremely dramatic, and is written so that one group of chorus members always sings from the perspective of \"a congregation mourning the loss of a loved one,\" while the other group sings from the perspective of \"comforting the congregation and persuading them to return to reality. The music itself is tonal, sometimes forming a magnificent fugue, and differs from the usual conception of a requiem as a \"prayer for the repose of the dead. Recorded in 2014 by the Philadelphia Singers\/David Hayes.
