The work is a melancholic love song that is based on a folk like melody underlined by a constant pedal point, resembling the sound of bagpipes.

According to his wife, Constanze Mozart, the ailing composer had come to believe he was writing the piece, initially commissioned by a German count, to be played at his own funeral — and indeed some sections were. Requiem was later performed at the funerals and commemorative services of Ludwig van beethoven, Joseph Haydn, and Frédéric Chopin.
Centuries later in 1960, “scraps of paper” containing Mozart’s unrealized ideas were discovered, prompting new versions of the Requiem.

After Michael Jackson's untimely Death in June 2009, Amy arranged "I'll be There" as a tribute to his life and music. On August 7, 2009, five of the future members of KeyStone performed this arrangement at the summer concert of The A Cappella Project - Philadelphia. When KeyStone formed nearly two years later, "I'll be There" became one of their first songs. We recorded this video in memory of Michael, with gratitude and love.
Music by berry Gordy, Bob West, Willie Hutch, Hal Davis
Arrangement by Amy Howe
Lead vocals: Amy Howe, Josh Schrager
This video was recorded live using a smart phone from the interior of an SUV. It is unedited, unmastered, and has minimal mixing.

Our repertoire is all original, written by choir members and has emerged as a new tribal choral tradition that honors Death as a natural, expected, sometimes very inspiring event in a life. While we don't require auditions, our welcome process is rigorous. This kind of singing is spiritual work and is deeply rewarding for those who are called to it.

text: Keats (from Ode to a Nightingale)
Darkling I listen; and, for many a time
I have been half in love with easeful Death,
Call'd him soft names in many a musèd rhyme,
To take into the air my quiet breath;
Now more than ever seems it rich to die,
To cease upon the midnight with no pain
