A highly effective and poignant setting of the famous memorial text (attributed Mary Frye ) by the young composer Ed Rex. This joins Rexs A hymn to the night as part of the Boosey Hawkes Contemporary Choral Series and is completely homophonic with sumptuous harmonies, perfect for a very special service or memorial occasion. Composers note In 2009 I was asked to write a piece for the wedding of some friends of mine, and the resulting setting of Rumis This Marriage was my first published work. Do not stand at my grave and weep follows on from that as the second in a series for what are traditionally the three most important services of a persons life. It is dedicated to my grandfather.
