"Song for Athene" is a choral work composed by John Tavener in 1993. It gained significant recognition when it was performed at the funeral of Princess Diana in 1997. The piece is a setting of the Eastern Orthodox funeral service text and incorporates elements of both Western and Eastern musical traditions. With its ethereal and meditative quality, "Song for Athene" is known for its hauntingly beautiful harmonies and use of rich vocal textures. It has become one of Tavener's most beloved and widely performed compositions.
