Ligeti: "Lux aeterna"
november 2010
piece for 16 solo singers, 1966. It is most famous for its use in Stanley Kubrick's 1968 film 2001: A Space Odyssey.
The text (in Latin) is from the Roman Catholic Requiem Mass: Lux aeterna luceat eis, Domine, cum sanctis tuis in aeternum, quia pius es. Requiem aeternum dona eis, Domine; et lux perpetua luceat eis, which means "May everlasting light shine upon them, O Lord, with thy saints in eternity, for thou art merciful. Grant them eternal rest, O Lord, and may everlasting light shine upon them."
