This is a repost of the Confutatis movement of a Requiem, I have been working on for quite awhile. I made some minor changes in the orchestration, mostly in the second half of the piece. The first half is written as a simple, mournful canon intending to depict those condemned to the "flames of woe" resigned to their fate as their punishment is carried out. The second half is intended to depict angels descending from heaven, represented by the tremolo strings, to comfort those who have been saved by their contrition.

Here's the full movement; the theme begins at about 0:46.

Very nice! You really did a fine job capturing very different moods; I especially liked the second and seventh variations. If you're interested a better rendering of the piece (I could put the midi through garritan strings which I think would sound better), let me know.
