Royal Philharmonic Orchestra (RPO), Robin Gibb, Aled Jones

On 15 April 1912 the Titanic sank in the North Atlantic and over 1,500 people died. 100 years later, Robin Gibb and his son RJ, commemorate this disastrous voyage and catastrophic loss of life with the release of The Titanic Requiem, their first classical work together.

Recorded at Air studios with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and the RSVP Voices choir, and produced by Cliff Masterson and Savvas Iosifides, this modern classic includes three vocal pieces: Daybreak (Mario Frangoulis), Christmas Day (Isabel Suckling), and Don't Cry Alone in which Robin Gibb sings the evocative lead vocal.

The Titanic Requiem's release will be celebrated with a world premiere concert in London on 10 April 2012 at Central Hall, Westminster. Performed in its entirety by the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, the concert will feature a choir and very special guests.
