The 5-minute piece for SATB choir and brass was premiered at one of the UKs three main World War I centenary commemoration events on 4 August 2014. It was launched by the London Symphony Chorus, Schleswig-Holstein Festival Chor and Coldstream Guards, at a twilight event attended by the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, Prince Harry, and a number of world leaders, all gathered together in the tiny woodland cemetery of St Symphorien near Mons, Belgium - the resting place for the first and last British, and the last Commonwealth, soldiers to die on the Western Front. The texts are May, 1915 by Charlotte Mew (1869-1928), and To a Missing Friend by Goldfeld, a German Jewish soldier killed in action, the poem was discovered by Jewish military historian, Peter C Appelbaum.
