It is a deeply moving composition, blending the traditional Latin Requiem Mass with the poetry of Wilfred Owen, a soldier who died in World War I. This juxtaposition of sacred text and war poetry creates a powerful commentary on the horrors of war and the hope for peace. This recording, recorded in 1963, is often regarded as the definitive interpretation of the work.
