The mention of the "War Requiem" reminds me of one of my very keen memories
from those days; I sang in a "musical union" at Oberlin College my sr. year
(1968) and we performed the War Requiem. I will never forget how moving it
was, and I can still "hear" the long silence in the packed hall after the
final words from Owen's poem ("let us sleep now") died away.
And I, too, found Kim Worthy's comment real interesting. Will check out the
book you mentioned.
