I want the "Dies Irae" of Mozart's Requiem wailing away at full orchestral volume with the "Confutatis maledictus" in full strings zinging in the wings.

I beg God to have mercy on this poor old sinner soul. Lord knows, I'll need it...

Amen, brother.

The Dies Irae has been the occasion of conversions...

I 'spose it would be too much to expect Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina to write a Missae Layman Bornacatholic but I really do deserve one..:)
