Inspired by the loss of friends in World War I, this choral work features poetry by Walt Whitman, whom Holst admired as a prophetic figure. The composition captures a sense of infinite space through open chords, particularly in the last section of "When Lilacs Last in the Dooryard Bloom'd." This edition presents a newly engraved and meticulously researched score by Richard W. Sargeant, Jr., with the full score and orchestral parts available for purchase from Serenissima Music, highlighting its enduring beauty and significance.
