Penderecki: Symphony 8 - Dies Irae
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dies_Irae
The words have often been set to music as part of the Requiem
service, originally as a sombre plainchant. It also formed part of
the traditional Catholic liturgy of All Souls Day. Music for the
Requiem Mass has been composed by many composers, including Wolfgang
Amadeus Mozart as well as Hector Berlioz, Giuseppe Verdi, and Igor
Stravinsky. The setting by Mozart, especially the first two stanzas
(Requiem, 2nd movement), is often heard in the scores of movies and
the musical "beds" of commercials (e.g. X2: X-Men United).
The traditional Gregorian melody has also been used as a musical
quotation in a number of other classical compositions, among them:

Any listers know of a list of 20C works that use the Dies Irae in
some form
or another?
There is Rachmaninoff, of course, and Michael Daugherty's "Dead
Elvis".
Also Crumb uses it now and then e.g. Black Angels, Makrokosmos II.
But any
others that come to mind? (Particularly "important" works?)
Matthew
