Hello there,
Which requiems do you think put the most emphasis on the word "Requiem Aeternam"(Eternal Rest)?
Here are mine if you are wondering:
I put them in order from most restful to least restful:

r/classicalmusic Rules
Things to Know
If you're new to classical music, and are looking for recommendations: first of all, welcome! /r/classicalresources is an archive for people who aren't sure where to start or are looking for more music they'll like, and we send all requests for basics over there. In addition to that, if you're posting an extremely frequently asked question, you may be told to use the search bar to look for similar posts.
If you see something that is rude, offensive, or otherwise strikes you as wrong, please report it and we'll take a look. Reports bring things to our attention faster, and posts and comments above a certain number of reports will be automatically removed (with exceptions as needed).
Posts from accounts under a certain (small) amount of karma must be manually approved by a mod in order to appear in the feed.
Remember that not everyone has the same tastes. If you can't tell why anyone would like a particular composer, don't be afraid to ask rather than dismissing them as "overrated." (On that note, please don't insult others for liking or disliking a specific composer!) And if you're feeling alone in your love of a specific composer, feel free to post some works of theirs that might intrigue others.
We acknowledge that the term "classical music" is somewhat porous. While this sub is not limited to Western classical music – there is no reason not to discuss other classical traditions here - that is currently its main focus. Contemporary music strongly influenced by classical traditions is also entirely appropriate to discuss. Popular music with significant classical influences is also welcome provided that the clear purpose is to consider that music thoughtfully in the context of classical traditions. Beyond those cases, most popular musical genres are better discussed elsewhere and will be removed from this subreddit as soon as we see them.
