The Five Stages of Loss

$15.00

This choral song cycle explores the complex emotional responses that may arise when facing one’s own impending death or the death of a loved one. Its conceptual foundation is the Kübler-Ross model, introduced by Swiss-American psychiatrist Elisabeth Kübler-Ross in her 1969 book On Death and Dying, which drew upon her work with terminally ill patients.
