Mozart does the Requiem Mass.
You may recognize some of these from the movie, “Amadeus.”
I like Dies Irae, Confutatis, and Lacrimosa. Can you identify the scenes in the movie where
these songs were played?
Make sure these songs are played at
my Requiem Mass so we can both enjoy the music. Thanks much!
III. Sequence of the Mass for the Deceased

Dies irae - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ee_HErMwHag
|
|
Dies
irae, dies illa
Solvet saeclum in favilla, teste David cum Sibylla. Quantus tremor est futurus, quando judex est venturus, cuncta stricte discussurus! |
Day
of wrath, day of anger
will dissolve the world in ashes, as foretold by David and the Sibyl. Great trembling there will be when the Judge descends from heaven to examine all things closely. |
2. Tuba mirum - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l8AGJYmSkz0
|
|
Tuba
mirum spargens sonum
per sepulcra regionum, coget omnes ante thronum. |
The
trumpet will send its wondrous sound
throughout earth's sepulchres and gather all before the throne. |
Mors
stupebit et natura,
cum resurget creatura, judicanti responsura. Liber scriptus proferetur, in quo totum continetur, unde mundus judicetur. |
Death
and nature will be astounded,
when all creation rises again, to answer the judgement. A book will be brought forth, in which all will be written, by which the world will be judged. |
Judex
ergo cum sedebit,
quidquid latet, apparebit, nil inultum remanebit. |
When
the judge takes his place,
what is hidden will be revealed, nothing will remain unavenged. |
Quid
sum miser tunc dicturus?
quem patronum rogaturus, cum vix justus sit securus? |
What
shall a wretch like me say?
Who shall intercede for me, when the just ones need mercy? |
3. Rex tremendae - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FPyUU9jNIJ0
|
|
Rex
tremendae majestatis,
qui salvandos savas gratis, salve me, fons pietatis. |
King
of tremendous majesty,
who freely saves those worthy ones, save me, source of mercy. |
4. Recordare - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VcKW8qAPxd0
|
|
Recordare,
Jesu pie,
quod sum causa tuae viae; ne me perdas illa die.
Quaerens me,
sedisti lassus,
redemisti crucem passus; tantus labor non sit cassus.
Juste judex
ultionis,
donum fac remissionis ante diem rationis.
Ingemisco,
tamquam reus:
culpa rubet vultus meus; supplicanti parce, Deus.
Qui Mariam
absolvisti,
et latronem exaudisti, mihi quoque spem dedisti.
Preces meae non
sunt dignae,
sed tu, bonus, fac benigne, ne perenni cremer igne.
Inter oves locum
praesta,
Et ab haedis me sequestra, Statuens in parte dextra. |
Remember,
kind Jesus,
my salvation caused your suffering; do not forsake me on that day.
Faint and weary
you have sought me,
redeemed me, suffering on the cross; may such great effort not be in vain.
Righteous judge
of vengeance,
grant me the gift of absolution before the day of retribution.
I moan as one
who is guilty:
owning my shame with a red face; suppliant before you, Lord.
You, who
absolved Mary,
and listened to the thief, give me hope also.
My prayers are
unworthy,
but, good Lord, have mercy, and rescue me from eternal fire.
Provide me a
place among the sheep,
and separate me from the goats, guiding me to Your right hand. |
5. Confutatis - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wyznWgDqIuA
|
|
Confutatis
maledictis,
flammis acribus addictis, voca me cum benedictus.
Oro supplex et
acclinis,
cor contritum quasi cinis, gere curam mei finis. |
When
the accused are confounded,
and doomed to flames of woe, call me among the blessed.
I kneel with
submissive heart,
my contrition is like ashes, help me in my final condition. |
6. Lacrimosa - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2wGLDVEXK5M
|
|
Lacrimosa
dies illa,
qua resurget ex favilla judicandus homo reus. Huic ergo parce, Deus, pie Jesu Domine, dona eis requiem. Amen. |
That
day of tears and mourning,
when from the ashes shall arise, all humanity to be judged. Spare us by your mercy, Lord, gentle Lord Jesus, grant them eternal rest. Amen. |
