Description
The world-premiere recording of Canadian composer Christopher Tyler Nickel's Requiem marries the placidity of plainchant to complex rhythmic energy, powerfully communicating an intensely personal listening experience.
"In my music, peace and restlessness co-exist continually". So explains award-winning Canadian composer Christopher Tyler Nickel, describing his setting of the Requiem, which marries the placidity of plainchant to complex rhythms and meters. Scored for chamber orchestra, choir and solo soprano, and setting the complete standard Latin text, this world-premiere recording posseses a steady current of energy that propels the work ever-forward, whilst Chris' contemplative musical language enhances a sense of intimacy that makes its communicative power feel intensely personal.
