In commemoration of the tenth anniversary of 9/11, the composer Robert Moran created the Trinity Requiem, a new piece for children's voices. The piece was commissioned by Trinity Wall Street and will have its world premiere, sung by the Trinity Youth Chorus, at a concert at Trinity Church on September 7 at 6pm.

Moran has composed operas, ballets, orchestral and vocal works, as well as large-scale musical compositions that have included thousands of performers, radio and television stations, and dance ensembles in the street.

The Trinity Requiem, sung by the Trinity Youth Chorus, is also featured on a new CD released today by Innova Recordings.

"While many of the singers were barely born at the time of the attacks in New York," the CD notes state on Innova's website, "the composer found inspiration in the all-too common grief found in war zones around the world (such as Kosovo and London) when children suddenly lose their families to violence."
