I've performed this Requiem, and the Karl Jenkins, and have found neither to be particularly startling. Granted, listening to a recording could result in a very different impression of both pieces, but for what its worth from a performer's perspective, I would say that neither Requiem can hold up to some of the other great masterpieces that are available.

The Rutter is quite... disjointed. The Jenkins is tainted, like many of his compositions, by poor melodic development and equally poor voice leading and harmony. Granted, I struggle to find value in many of the compositions of either person, so I come from a biased perspective.
