Luke Skywalker 1,792 Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 With peril of Stefan putting me on a pyre, this piece could also have been used, and very fitting thematically (moreso than WIlliams') Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted May 4, 2017 Author Share Posted May 4, 2017 Hymn To The Fallen was played again just now as the Dutch Remembrance Day ceremony came to a close. It's now pretty much part of the standard reportoire for ceremonies of this type in a number of countries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightscape94 965 Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 I had YouTube'd the Hymn a while back and was surprised to see so many performances of it in events like this. Some with choir, some with solo voice, some without. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
