ManxTaxPayer Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Yes ok, I know you're going to say Mozart's D minor, or Fauré's in the same key and I agree. Terrific works. Very accessible too. But at the moment, I am mostly listening to Ligeti's Requiem. It's an amazing score I'm sure you'll all agree. Listen. And enjoy. And maybe ponder the futility of everything. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aL5lnAQ2b68 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hillshepherd Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 A requiem mass for the ragheads would be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ManxTaxPayer Posted March 22, 2016 Author Share Posted March 22, 2016 Yes, good call, but that's only a tiny bit of it. Here's a goody, if a little disturbing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManxTaxPayer Posted March 22, 2016 Author Share Posted March 22, 2016 On the subject of Penderecki, here's a beauty for all you readers out there! Ok, not a requiem, but a similar nod to death albeit en masse! Amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

llap Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 Kilar's Exodus, Gorecki's Symphony No 3, Ravel's Pavane pour une infante defunte, these all sound requiemish to me and I like them, but you can't beat Mozart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ManxTaxPayer Posted March 31, 2016 Author Share Posted March 31, 2016 Ravel's Pavane pour une infante defunte, Bit short for a Requiem that, but what a piece. Such emotion! Here's a piano roll of the man himself performing it. It's possibly been speeded up by the machine, who knows, it's faster than most versions I'm famiiar with but it still works. Amazing. What a guy.

2bees Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 Pavane is beautiful, that's what I was going to play in the guild... But I'm a chicken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Peters Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 Sadly I'm not a fan of classical music - bar the 'Your Favourite Classics' usual suspects, but as a requiem I always thought this was completely beautiful: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ieE4ErFwKrcI got Nimrod by a brass band for my dad's funeral (it was his favourite piece) and it still gives me chills to hear it.ETA: Forgotten how to paste a video window. Off to the help section... ETAA: Attack of the fucking stupids. Can't do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
