Variations on Mozart/Süssmeyr Requiem

Seasons greetings one and all!

Just wanted to share this little experiment I tried this week, where I deconstructed Mozart's Requiem, then used little fragments to try and fashion a new piece.

Later I decided to quote part of Mozart's work at the end: so it ended up a bit like a theme and variations in reverse.

Not sure I'm done with it yet; though it may be finished?

Including part of the original work probably just serves to show how weak my choral writing and voice leading is compared to Mozart's!

I've a feeling it's a complete failure; but was fun to try.

Anyway let me know your thoughts, if you have time.

Well, that sounds cool!  I will give it a listen!
