English composer, conductor, and arranger John Rutter’s Requiem is a musical setting of parts of the Latin Requiem. This Requiem has added psalms and biblical verses in English, and was completed in 1985. It is scored for soprano, mixed choir, and chamber ensemble.
Five of its seven movements are based on text from the Latin Requiem Mass, while the second movement is a setting of “Out of the deep” (Pslam 130) and the sixth movement is an anthem “The Lord’s My Shepherd” (Psalm 23) which Rutter had earlier written.
