Personally I would not have touched this with a bargepole after Britten, but your motivation can hardly be faulted.

My hope is that humanity will one day learn that we do not have to do the will of the power hungry. I, for one, am not content to wait until the Lord returns. That, I am afraid, is simply another lie calculated to get the populace to submit and endure.
Beautifully conceived and executed. I hope that many hear this beautiful work.

Hi John,
Well-conceived and well-composed. The piece was very moving. War is an awful thing. But the alternative is often worse-to allow tyrannical leaders to suppress us and rob us of our freedom. We'll have peace when the Lord returns; but until then it will unfortunately be a struggle to maintain peace.
