Dies Irae

Yesterday, when I was sending around my Pie Jesu, one soprano replied saying that she was looking for something more rock/opera in style.

So, this morning I wrote this: (TURN IT UP LOUD!!)

THIS IS A NEW VERSION - with the addition of an electric guitar!



A setting of the Dies Irae in a crossover rock/opera style for solo soprano with "orchestra".

The Dies Irae is a Latin poem all about the Day of Judgement and the end of the world!

The solo soprano part is played on an oboe on this instrumental version. The soprano sax part that provides the "echoes" could easily be a second voice and the piece used as a duet.
