Jonathan Dove, English composer, set seven texts, including poetry by Blake, Dickinson and Tennyson, to create Passing of the Year for double chorus and piano in memory of his mother.
Herbert Howells Requiem was composed in 1932, but first published almost 50 years later in 1981. Set for unaccompanied choir, it uses a combination of texts from the traditional Requiem Mass and other sacred sources.
