Beschreibung:
When James Barnes was commissioned to compose a work for the United States Army Band to commemorate the 150th Anniversary of the American Civil War, he decided to combine two massive structures into one: a requiem and a symphony. The result is this work, which is intended to portray the heartbreak of three of the most dramatic battles of the war, concluded by an apotheosis, a hymn of respect and praise for the 668, 000 soldiers, Confederate and Federal alike, who gave their lives during this monumental conflict.
