Mutations on the 'Dies Irae'

Written in 1973-74 at the request of the Italian guitarist, Angelo Gilardino, to whom the music is also dedicated. The request was for a 'Noah's Ark of composers' making variations on the Dies irae theme, as harmonised by Mario Castelnuovo-Tedesco. Gilardino suggested the composers, most of which suggestions were adopted. The omission from this volume is the variation on John Dowland. See Galliard Op.58a for the details.
