The late Bee Gees star Robin Gibb released a classic music album in 2012 inspired by which event?

Robin Hugh Gibb, CBE (22 December 1949 – 20 May 2012) was a British singer, songwriter and record producer, best known as a member of the pop group the Bee Gees. He gained worldwide fame with his brothers Barry and Maurice Gibb (Robin's twin).

On 15 April 1912 the Titanic sank in the North Atlantic and over 1,500 people died. 100 years later Robin Gibb and his son Robin-John, commemorated this catastrophic loss of life with the 'The Titanic Requiem'. This modern classic includes three vocal pieces: Daybreak (Mario Frangoulis), Christmas Day (Isabel Suckling), and Don’t Cry Alone in which Robin Gibb sings the evocative lead.

On 30 January 2012, Gibb announced his intention to appear on stage at the Coming Home Concert at the London Palladium in February to benefit British soldiers returning home from Afghanistan. It would be his last performance on stage. Over a period of two years, Gibb and Robin-John wrote the score for The Titanic Requiem, recorded by Royal Philharmonic Orchestra to commemorate the 100th Anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic. Gibb was due to attend the piece's premier on 10 April 2012 at the Central Hall, Westminster, London but his failing health kept him away. He passed away the next month.
