Anthems for Doomed Youth consists of musical settings of some of the most prolific and significant poetry of World War One.

More than the photographs or the eyewitness reports, it is the poetry of the First World War - some of the most outstanding and poignant of the last century - that has embedded the horror of that time in our consciousness.

"What passing-bells for these who die as cattle?" - Wilfred Owen
