for soprano and baritone soloists, SATB, and orchestra Drawing upon
the Bible, sections from the Mass, and poems by Walt Whitman, this
is a powerful musical evocation of the destruction and death
brought about through war and violence, with an overarching message
of peace and reconciliation. It was composed in 1936, a time when
war was threatening to engulf Europe once again, and the title,
which translates as 'Give us peace', is as relevant now as it was
when the work was premiered in 1936. Featuring some of the
composer's most potent music (both serene and violent), it makes an
affecting plea. Materials for the full orchestral version and an
accompaniment for strings and piano are available on hire.
