SATB (with divisions) unaccompanied Grodek is thought to be the last work of the Austrian poet Georg Trakl; the title refers to the town where Trakl served as a medical officer in the First World War. Jackson's setting captures the darkness of the text, with an eerie opening building to a powerful climax.
