The long-missing first section of Virgin Black’s requiem mass, recorded in 2006, Requiem – Pianissimo represents the all-orchestral stage of the full requiem’s 2.5 hour duration.
Here, performing the score composed by Virgin Black’s Sesca Scaarba (formerly Samantha Escarbe) and Rowan London, is The Adelaide Symphony Orchestra, with Adelaide Stamford Academy Choir giving voice to the choral arrangements – the ASO’s Bruce Stewart as conductor.
