Written for 16-part mixed choir, this work sets part of the traditional Latin requiem mass and uses Ligeti’s trademark shifting rhythms to create a shimmering and unsettling effect.
Lux aeterna luceat eis
Domine, cum sanctis tuis in aeternum, quia pius es
Requiem aeternam dona eis
Domine; et lux perpetua luceat eis
Lux Aeterna was written by György Ligeti.
