NotesAll scores were composed by London and Escarbe, and performed by the Adelaide Symphony Orchestra. The second of the series, Requiem-Mezzo Forte, further develops the classical and operatic influences within a more identifiably 'metal' framework. Combining traditional metal instrumentation with rich orchestral arrangements, Mezzo Forte captures the dramatic, dark melodic sensibility that Virgin Black fans have come to love and respect. The final album of the series, Requiem-Fortissimo, is a fierce statement of grief, and the band's heaviest work yet. Combining the brutality of Death/doom with an unmistakable sophistication and majesty, Fortissimo concludes the series with a display of greater savagery and abandon. When the complete series is played end-to-end, listeners will be treated to an evolving soundscape of increasing intensity. With a total duration of over two and a half hours, Requiem is a unique sonic experience.
