Messa da Requiem is a large-scale choral work by Giuseppe Verdi, composed in 1874 in memory of the writer Alessandro Manzoni. The score blends the drama of Italian opera with the weight of sacred music, making extraordinary demands on soloists, choir and orchestra alike. Its most famous movement is the turbulent Dies irae.
