With a text by the composer, 'My Love has Died for Me' is taken from Passion Music, a concert and liturgical work that epitomizes Todd's love of blending jazz and choral music. Recurring melodies, changing metres, and extended harmonies combine to explore the theme of loss in this powerful and expressive lament.

Über Autor(innen)

British composer and pianist Will Todd has worked at the Royal Opera House, the Lincoln Center in New York, London's Barbican, and with Welsh National Opera, award-winning choirs The Sixteen, BBC Singers, and Tenebrae. He travels extensively world-wide, workshopping with choirs, and conducting performances of his works. Will's music is valued for its melodic intensity and harmonic skill, often incorporating jazz colours, and his choral music is much in demand from
amateur as well as professional performers. He is best-known for his choral works, and his jazz-inspired Mass in Blue has been performed hundreds of times since its premiere in 2003. He won second prize in the 2002 International Giuseppe Verdi Opera Competition, and his anthem, The Call of Wisdom, was
commissioned for HRH The Queen's Diamond Jubilee service at Westminster Abbey.
