Requiem: The World's Most Moving Music

From the Publisher

A special selection of the most poignant, expressive and moving themes and melodies, all arranged as sumptuous Piano solos. This anthology will bring a tear to your eye and a lump to your throat as you enjoy an absorbing and hugely rewarding selection. 

The Thirty-one pieces here range from Barber's celebrated Adagio For Strings, through Elgar's spectacular Nimrod to popular favourites including Pie Jesu and the theme from television's Six Feet Under. You will recognise themes and movements as appearing in such films asSchindler's List, The Pianist, Death In Venice and Elizabeth. These memorable movements have been compiled from the album of the same name, and lovingly arranged for the solo Piano.
