Verdi wrote his Requiem in 1874. It has been called one of the greatest operas ever because of its passion and lyricism. The exciting Sanctus movement is also an 8-part double fugue based on the inversion of the melody from Libera Me. Randall Malmstrom has done a wonderful job with his arrangement of this great piece for 8-part Trombone ensemble. The 2 1/2 minute movement is appropriate for advanced performers.
