Description

Anthem for Doomed Youth originally appeared as part of the third movement of The Great War Symphony written to commemorate the centenary of the First World War.  The well-known words by Wilfred Owen are sung against an instrumental elegy.  For this reason, the accompaniment should make perfect sense in itself with the frequently syncopated, broken choral parts suggesting a sense of grief – even of weeping.
