In the eighth movement of a mass by this composer, violins play a sudden dissonant tremolo before the basses enter singing “C, B-flat, C [pause] A” on the lyric “dies illa.” A “Sanctus” by this composer is accompanied by perpetuum mobile sextuplets in the violas, which the organ plays in its reduced orchestration. This composer’s vocal writing is characterized by mixed meter, monophony, and modality, as in his mass Cum Jubilo. The motet “Ubi Caritas” is one of this perfectionist composer’s 14 works. Durand published this composer’s most famous piece, which was commissioned by the (*) Vichy government and based on Gregorian chant. Like a more popular precursor, that D minor piece ends with the “In Paradisum” and omits the “Sequenza.” For 10 points, what composer’s Requiem is often compared to that of his countryman Gabriel Fauré? ■END■
