Requiem Non-US copyright

For S/A TB choir, Organ, Violin or Viola. (Originally viola, but well within the range of a violin). Puccini wrote this short Requiem – actually the setting of the antiphon to the Introit of the Mass for the Dead – as a commission for the publisher Giulio Ricordi for the fourth anniversary of the death of Giuseppe Verdi which occurred on 27 January 1905. This anthem-length setting for (basically) three voices can be easily performed by smaller church choirs. The alto part divides but can easily be covered by your sopranos.
