Correction: Mozart’s Requiem isn’t a symphony, it’s a requiem: a type of Catholic mass for the dead. It was initially written for mass but later popularized and performed outside the church, as was Verdi's.
Think back to some of the most dramatic scenes in film history - from The Lion King, The Shining, It’s a Wonderful Life. Besides being sad or scary, they have something else in common: the dies irae. “Dies irae” translates from Latin to “Day of Wrath” - it’s a 13th-century Gregorian chant describing the day Catholics believe God will judge the living and the dead and send them to heaven or hell. And it was sung during one specific mass: funerals.
As Catholicism permeated world culture, the melody of the chant was repurposed into classical music, where it was used to convey a deathly, eerie tone. From there it worked its way into films - and if you don’t already know it, you’ve almost certainly heard it before: It’s played over and over in our scariest and most dramatic cinematic moments.
Here’s Alex Ludwig’s original supercut of movies featuring the dies irae: • Video
There are so many references to the dies irae in classical music that we couldn’t include. One is Sergei Rachmaninoff’s 1908 “symphonic poem” Isle of the Dead ( • Rachmaninov: The Isle ... . He was inspired by this painting from Swiss artist Arnold Böcklin that shows a coffin and white figure on their way to a small island (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isle_of....
Alex briefly touched on the differences between the ancient dorian mode and the modern minor mode. There’s a ton written online about them, but here’s a good place to start if you’re curious: www.musical-u.com/learn/get-f...

Thanks for the correction
@Vox What about Verdi's Messa da Requiem?
@@brendan95delany same thing! edited the correction to reflect that.
My band and I make music , we would appreciate if anyone listened
Where can I find Prof. Ludwig’s written list?
so this is what 'Play this song at my funeral' sounded like in middle ages
now its astronomia
Sankaranarayanan S. Ayyar yup😆
Yepp
no, this is more like "this is the song your are allowed to play at funerals"
bruh 1.4k likes how
In Home Alone, the Dies Irae theme plays every time Kevin sees Old Man Marley. But when they meet at the church and Kevin finds out he's not a serial killer, the music switches to Carol of the Bells, which uses the same four notes!
okay you've convinced me, time to watch it again
that is interesting
That's interesting indeed
i knew ittt omg i thought i remembered those notes playing in the first home alone movie
How in all possibilities someone out there knew something about this? Im totally confused.
Can we just appreciate that monks in the 13 century so perfectly captivated a mood that it’s still used to this day!!! Pure genius.
Not everything is "genius", though that word sure does get thrown around a lot. Maybe it was genius. Or, not. Perhaps it's only because it was used so much, and in these specific ways, that we simply learned those associations. And had it been something very different they wrote, we'd have become conditioned to say/feel these same things about it which we are now saying about the Dies Irae. Why else would music in different cultures (especially those with a very different scale systems) arouse feelings and moods in the listeners from those countries which are not felt by us? Learned neurological hard-wiring beats the snot out of instinctual ones.
We have learned to associate the melody through years of repeated use. So the monks had the least effect on its popularization. Every single person who decided to use the melody after had the collective goal of making it a strong association.
No.
Lol anti Catholics can't even give Catholic monks their due.
@@nenabunenaliterally was about to comment this. And dies irae is like a speck from the vast treasure Catholicism contributed over centuries.
This is actually used a lot in Squid Game as well. The "death" song that plays includes this sequence of notes.
Yeah, the "Pink Soldiers" track.
Yeah!
@Adolf Hitler i found out before the short
Is it actually?
Who wants to be a Millionaire as well

It’s used in Mulan too when the Huns are getting ready to strike

Oooh, now I gotta re-watch "Mulan" for that reason! (But I'll take just about any reason to re-watch a favorite movie.)

@@MizzWGGrrrl same dude haha
YAAAAAAAAS.
Regarding the minor key...years ago I was in a psychiatric ward for a time. There was a piano in the common area, and I played it often because we only had music during art therapy. Almost every song I know & love to play is in the minor key, and one of the other patients asked me why I didn't play many "happy" songs. I told him that if I tended towards happy songs I probably wouldn't be where I was right then.
0:29 If you move those notes down one to the key of C, you get the Disney channel four-note-mnemonic melody theme
yes I did just come here from the defunctland video on alex lasarenko
bruh time for my daily unnecessary knowledge
true, haven't learned anything useful or interesting in a vox earworm video since the giant steps one.
Spot on.
It is useful here if you write music for TV or film. 😇
Unnecessary knowledge is the best.
haha
Frozen’s 2 gets added as basically the plot progression.
Sure thing
Why tf didn't they make the mother the villain?!? Even the leitmotif set it up perfectly!
I see it as foreshadowing, that the "ah ah ah ah" calling Elsa is this tune, signifying that someone dead is probably calling her (i.e. Her mother)
@@maya_yaser OH MY GOD AHHHHH
im about to say this,, but yeah the Frozen 2 has this melody...
the dies irae is also the Dead by Daylight main theme, as well as Frozen 2's Into The Unknown back vocal
Yeah! And also the menu music for simulacra!
looks like i'm five months late noticing. I just posted about the DbD reference
Well, not quite the dbd theme (due to the rhythms), but I'd still say it's close enough in overall form to count.
yep just about to comment that
making Christmas, making Christmas
3:51 I like how "The Shining" is probably one of the scariest horro movies but then the intro looks like it was made from power point but still somehow managed to look menacing
Saying that Shining is a horror film is just a meme that people keep repeating after each other in hope to get upvotes.
@@Nakilonredditor spotted
@@Nakilon What do you call it? And what's your definition of a horror film.
Pretty much the longest ongoing meme in music
I feel like ive seen you everywhere i go
𝕍𝕆𝕃𝔸𝕀ℝ𝔼 yeah basically innit
This and the licc. But the licc is much much younger.
So true
This isnt a meme. Maybe an easter egg
“Remember when Mufasa died?”
*immediately shuts laptop and cries*
peachy that was a tyrannicide.
Underrated
😂😂
Why?
Well, Simba got what he wanted, didn't he? Careful what you wish for, young lion.
The opening notes of “Music of the Night” from “Phantom of the Opera” has those notes too. It works, since the Phantom has essentially brought Christine into the Underworld!
It's the core melody repeated over and over as a sort of musical score march in "Making Christmas" from The Nightmare Before Christmas. They actually manage to create a kind of inverse or bizarro "happy song" out of it because the monsters of Halloween Town are trying to 'benevolently' take over Christmas, but their actions foreshadow disaster because they don't understand it. It's an absolutely brilliant way of communicating that the monsters are inadvertently "killing Christmas".
Yeah the second I heard the melody, that was the song that came right to mind!
@@jonathanmaybaum4167
Same here 💀
Everything about the movie is brilliant.
*Death has it’s own theme music*
That makes more sense than it should.
if anything, i guess death would. Study requiems...they are literally awesome. (edit: 1:53...nvm)
Does this theme play when a certain S3XY wolf enters the room in The Last Wish?
@@scratchpad7954thar would be so freaking fitting if the case
@@an-animal-lover dark
its != it's
it's referenced in the song "Making Christmas" from Nightmare before Christmas, mostly the chorus.
Also a little park of jack’s lament
You can hear this melody in quite a lot of classical music works : Berlioz's Symphonie Fantastique, Rachmaninoff's Isle of the Dead and Paganini Rhapsody, Liszt's Totentanz, Saint-Saëns's Danse Macabre, among manyh others. It apperas also in Bergman's film "the seventh seal".
Those notes are the motif that permeates the entirety of Rachmaninoff's First Symphony.
Vox knows how to construct an opener: “here’s four music notes that humans know mean death, and here’s why they mean death”
Stopped watching at 1:16 because that's all I needed!
Indeed. (1000th like)
And now those four notes are also in Elsa's song Into the Unknown from Frozen 2. I bet those monks from the Middle Ages never imagined it.
@@c0smoKram3r I'm watching the whole thing because why not I want knowledge
Except this was stolen from another uploader.
This is literally the ‘Siren call’ in frozen 2
i was wondering why it made me feel so sentimental. I had like a weird connection to it. wow
And that's why I'm here bruh
I told my wife about that. We went to see it yesterday and immediately, once the played for the first time, I remembered this video.
That is what I thought
Oh i juat realized
Dies Irae is also used in the main theme for the game Dead by Daylight
This is absolutely fascinating. I am definitely going to listen for it from now on!
Okay this is creepy
In my choir class we are singing “making christmas” from nightmare before Christmas and it has these notes. My choir teacher JUST talked about this today what it says in this video and now I got home open RUclips and this is on my recommended
RUN!!! Jacob RUN!!!
it happens. i hate it
ayeee we sang making christmas roo
So this is your fault
It's also in that other song where Jack has a mental breakdown
Dies irae: 2020's theme song.

Exactly . Keyword -creepy . So now its suddenly creepy :)
I actually never noticed that I am suppose to be creeped out by that melody lol.
I think I noticed it on a subconscious level

Amazing! Thanks for sharing this.
This actually helped me with a song I am creating. Thanks!
I just realized something:
In the Nightmare before Christmas, Jack sings a song called Jacks Lament. In the song, the start of the chorus, “Oh somewhere deep...” is the same four notes in this video. The whole movie is associated with death, so it was pretty genius on the composers side.
That would be Danny Elfman who yes. Is a musical genius and I'm sure it was intentional
It is also in the fight with Jack and Oogie Boogie
Danny Elfman my dude is the best
Pretty sure it’s In making Christmas also
Making Christmas is almost nothing but the Dies Irae
I just realized this sounds like Frozen 2, the sound that makes Elsa anxious
Yes, the composers actually used the Dies Irae intentionally.
OMG
Oh my god I know-
You're not alone, dude
the fact that's what she heard, it makes me believe that if anna hadnt found her she would've died.
The Krampus Theme (Krampus Karol of the Bells) also has a variation of this notes! makes sense why it made me uncomfortable now lol.
It’s also the theme in nightmare before Christmas
So, it's the musical version of a 'Wilhelm scream', even if it's far older than the trope itself. Fascinating.
Haha
Howie scream is better!
So interesting, thanks. It’s the “Wilhelm Scream” of music 😵
What's the 'Wilhelm Scream'?
If you like immersion in movies, don't look it up.
I literally heard it in my head as I read this comment 😂
Kipruto Bett remember when that storm trooper fell? That was is the Wilber scream.
Nah that's ""the lick"
I love hearing the Dies Iræ chanted during a Requiem Latin Mass.

Yes! It’s such a beautiful chant. Personally i have never heard it in real life, so i have listened to it on yt. Yes, very beautiful indeed.

Lol I love this and I hate to be that guy, but Luke's aunt/uncle dying isn't a super big spoiler
@@gabrieljreed technically it is, but it's one of those movies that's so insanely big that there's no way you haven't heard spoilers. I've not seen it's a wonderful life but I know the plot for that same reason.
Tian Right Here That “nobody” part is completely unnecessary.
Spoiler alert: grass is green 🙀🙀🙀
So, if you have not seen some of the most important movies ever, you might not even be interested, or you already saw them. They are very old, so... someone needs to catch up (not you, but whoever has not seen them)
Mozart's Requiem is not a symphony called Requiem. The Requiem is a genre in itself with a set text taken from the Requiem Mass - the same text set by Verdi (and many others). Neither is it "outside the church" as it was first performed at the funeral service of his commissioner.
Thanks for the correction and thanks for the content!
You forgot to fly away bruh
Vox stole this comment
5:10 that sounds like something I have heard in Death Note. So they used that too? Seems cool.
Very nice piece, cool research and examples! This was interesting, thanks!
Wait.. isn’t that the “silent siren” from Frozen II?
Yes
randomgirlG it is!
Omg ur right
*AHHH AHHH AHH AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH*
NO DON'T GIVE ME SPOILERS
I HAVEN'T EVEN WATCHED ALL OF INFINITY WAR YET
The ballad of Sweeny Todd also has the Dies Irae motif.
OOH, the first four notes of "Swing your razor high, Sweeney" are that motif!!! You're right!
Yeah, and Epiphany is based off the Dies Irae too. Sondheim is such a genius
The first line in "not while I'm around" is actually the dies irae upside down (inverted), the whole score is based on the dies irae motif :D
@@ThomasGunnariRtting which is why Sondheim is a genius composer
Stephen is a genius, I swear
That's absolutely incredible! I never knew.
This was very interesting! Now i will look out for the notes too.
Basically the whole of the music written from the musical 'Sweeney Todd' uses the dies irae, the plot is so heavily based around death, it can be found in literally every song (with the exception of like 2). I find it so amazing how Sondheim finds a way to change the format of the dies irae (for example Ms Lovett's liet motif, it is basically the dies irae flipped upside down). I find the way that the dies irae sets the scene for the musical really amazing. I always find that when I listen to the music in Sweeney Todd it really does make me think of death. The dies irae is such an amazing piece in that sense that it link our thoughts to a event with just a few notes. There is a yt video by sideways which rlly explaines it better and has a whole video on it and explains it way better.
There is a video about it.
Mozart's Requiem wasn't a symphony but a mass, even though it's impact still lives on to today.
a funeral mass
What drugs are you on I will have double of what you're having

The manager of the beatles said all notes have been played, its all just rewritten and copied. He compiled a cd in the late 98/99? , with robin williams, sean connery etc singing beatle songs...hope that helps in finding his name.

I just started watching White Lotus and I thought I recognized the melody. It ended up taking my back to this video, it also uses the Dies Irae
Dies Irae sounds exactly like the Carol of the Bells melody in D minor, which is a really happy carol.
It doesn't sound like a happy Carol to me, though - I always found it haunting and mesmerizing.
@@lilelly16 I think that part of the reason is the change in rhythm. Instead of 4 equal-length ominous sounding notes, the two middle notes are twice as fast, putting the melody in 3/4 instead of 4/4, and it's usually played at a faster tempo anyway -- all of which counters the built-in historical sadness and grief of the original dies irae
I just figured this out yesterday when I was wondering why that Christmas carol is so friggin THREATENING and hummed it slowly and BROSKIE THAT IS THE DIES IRAE WHY WOULD YOU MAKE THAT A CAROL!?!

I wonder though, are we just "trained" to feel that way about minor keys or is there something more, say, biological/innate that makes us react this way to certain frequencies, and why have we evolved thus. Beside shady pseudoscientific reasoning, that is
The question to every deep question is almost always "nature or nurture", isn't it?
not a remarkable question at all
It might have to do with the simpler frequency ratios between the notes of a major chord. It has the frequency ratios of 4:5:6, while a minor chord has the ratios of 10:12:15, making it more unstable.
Thanks finally someone that thinks like me
I always liked minor keys. They seem melancholy not depressing.
The tower song in the newest season of Westworld is definitely giving dies irae
As soon as I heard the Dies Irea in the clip of the Symphonie Fantasique I instantly recognized it from the Shining.
All I could hear this entire time was
“Making Christmas, making Christmas-“
Send help pls all I can hear now is that tune
Same here, first thing I thought when I heard it
Ok, but when I watching this just now, I was like....I know it's everywhere but what's the ONE instance that I know of that I can't recall? Then "Nightmare" comes up and I about lose it and nearly threw my phone...
Immediately what I thought of
Yes same here. But something interesting is that if you speed up the tune, it sounds a lot like Carol of the Bells.
Me too!!!!!!!
too bad those monks didn't copyright their notes in the music!....lol

hadnt noticed this before. good work. liked and sub'd
I just realized that these same exact notes were played in Home Alone 1, when Kevin encounters the "creepy neighbor" for the first time.
When Kevin meets the old man in the church, Carol of the Bros plays, Carol of the Bells has the same notes as Dies Irae
That melody is definitely in a nightmare before Christmas...
Ur2ez4me81 "This is Christmas"
Austin Steingrube “Making Christmas...”
That's what came to mind as well
That's awesome, i was thinking that right before i came across this comment. It's neat because it's not just background music, it's like, the tune of the music.
That song where Jack has a mental breakdown.. I forgot what its called
Wow thats something I never knew! Thnx Vox!
Really well done whoever did this video
The song “Making Christmas” from the Nightmare Before Christmas literally uses this throughout the entire somg
Elsa sis they in ur sequel like, the entire time
BloodyVelvet kiisix yeah Ik sis but my songs where a bop tho right?
That was my first thought too!!
Well it _was_ mentioned in the video, so.
Tim Burton uses it a lot in his movies to signify death lol
Let's be real:
Everyone just clicked the video just to hear the music...
Ok im real now what ?
Nope. Love the music but that wasn't the reason I clicked it.
so؟
Yes
Yeah, but I stayed for the lecture.
thanks, this will now never leave my mind and i will notice it **everywhere.**
This melody also showed up in a piece of music I haven't heard
in like 16 or 15 years!
Only after the four Dies irae notes at the beginning there were some screeching strings
This is why we have cliché, because it just works
It's not cliche so much as formula.
@@Shiny7054 cliches are just formulas that work well
Since "cliche" carries a negative connotation, I've always thought of the word "convention" as an alternative description of an often reused formula (a lot of people these days say "trope", but like cliche, it's also often used in a negative or dismissive way). An idea or approach that is conventional is something that just works rather than something which is felt to be overused.
The thing about having a engine where you can do anything is that it just works
satria amiluhur IT JUST WORKS.
I'm not being a troll here, but was the Dies Ire also the basis of the strange tune in Frozen 2?
Yes
O. M. G. Yes. Brilliant.
I was LITERALLY just about to say this!! Went straight to the comments to see if anyone else noticed it first 😭😂❄️
Yes! Of course it was also heavily inspired by an ancient Nordic herding call known as “kulning” which is equally just as ethereal and a bit creepy
Thanks for all the responses guys. :-)
I’m surprised Tubular bells is still known as the music from the Exorcist in the US. I thought it would have been culturally significant enough to be known by its own name.
This melody is used a lot in The Nightmare Before Christmas, I love it
So the Dies Irae is basically a very old meme ...
😂
😂😂😂
@HarleyHilderson Well, by Dawkin's definition of meme it clearly is one, but it was/is even used like an internet meme nowadays.
Memes often have elements of humor or satire... so I looked up and found this: Today, the word is sometimes used to describe ideas deemed to be of passing value. Dawkins himself described such short-lived ideas as memes that would have a short life in the meme pool. I'd say this is not a meme since it is not short-lived or containing humor (2nd definition under one posted by HarleyHilderson. Not arguing, just adding info I found so save those @'s
@@Donar23 All due respect, but I think you may have misread his definition. ✌
So I guess this makes "Carol of the Bells" super creepy then.
It has a whole stanzas with nothing but this melody. 😂
in all fairness, I did always find it to be a fairly spooky, 'wintery cold' sounding song
and that’s why the nightmare before christmas used a combination of dies irae and carol of the bells for the song making christmas! it’s almost too perfect of a combination!
its a different rhythm, that might make a difference
Carol of the Bells is in 3/4 time signature which completely changes the “spooky” element formed from common time
Take off your western music goggles dude, the Щедрик is a pre-Christian Slavic pagan new year's chant that had nothing to do with Dies Irae until contemporary western composers created the association with it in film scores
0:37 That's not even the same melody
I think Papers Please also uses the Dies Irae music. On its theme song, especially in the start.
‘Rocky Mountains’ from The Shining is probably my all time favourite score..
Vachan radiohead fans always have great taste
That’s almost directly taken from Berlioz. They even make the synths sound like the horns.
@@SeeMick1 I thought it basically was an adaptation of it
it is up there for me as well but my favorite will always be 2001's Star gate sequence. Kubrick always had fantastic music!
Not even the best Kubrick score my dude, clockwork orange takes that prize
Mozart requiem isn't a symphony.... Its a requiem (funeral mass)
True story man
As soon as you mentioned 'Dies Irae' my mind went to the part in 'The Whole Being Dead Thing' (from Beetlejuice: The Musical) where the ensemble started to chant that. It goes something like this:
I have mastered the art (Dies Irae)
Of tearing convention apart (Dies Irae)
It's basically near the end of the song. It definitely makes sense-
the 4 notes just fits so well with those scenes
All I can think of is "Making Christmas" from The Nightmare Before Christmas... Hmm lol
Jane Justice Doe
I love that movie!
I thought the same!!
I was thinking the same thing: the "Maaa - kiing - Christ - maas" phrase is sung to those four notes.
Nice catch! I never noticed that
Not just that, but Jack's Lament is also a variation of this theme, with different timing.
I love Moe Zart, and Franz Linst, and Giuseppay Verday.

Thank you for using the proper pronunciation
what, did they hire some kid from the local high school to narrate this?
This is making christmas, which makes sense. Good work.

Who complains about sampling?
Havnt seen anyone complain about sampling
@@victorhaaning there's a lot on twitter (overly devoted fans of some artists)
There have been literal lawsuits over songs sounding slightly similar to other ones lately. And I don't mean from the RIAA or record companies; this is artists suing each other. And _winning._ Katy Perry recently lost a suit to some rando on Soundcloud that she couldn't possibly have heard of. It's nuts.
@@stevethepocketlitigation by multimillionaire companies does not equal social and common-folk complaints about sampling.
if you’ve seen Frozen 2, you’ll also notice that this piece of music is heavy in the storyline. When I really listened to the siren’s song, I was blown away 😳😳 a really nice choice for that one
I hadn't realized it until the composer explicitly pointed it out in an interview, becausey rhythmically it is so much defamiliarized.
Wow good one! It's rrue, it's the siren's song 😮
Making Christmas is the first one that comes to mind when I think of the dies irae after Mozart and Verdi ofc.
Ever since Ive heard about this melody it it reminded me of something and I finally figured out what. Its used in Heroes of Might and Magic 5 main theme, now I finally now why the theme is so epic
Best Dies Irae:
MAKING CHRISTMAS
MAKING CHRISTMAS
FALLA LA! :)

I remember learning about this in band class a couple years ago. I was wondering what it’s called

Yup
Dies irae, dies irae.

Ok so basically when i watched this video i was like, “huh, ok” and right after that i had to go to my brother’s winter concert and in one of the songs IT LITERALLY PLAYED THE DIES IRAE THEME LOL. either i noticed it because i just found out about it or christmas music be dark 💀
I don’t think I’ve seen anybody notice it, but these notes are in the themes and leitmotifs of Dead by Daylight
When I hear those notes all I can think of “Making Christmas” from The Nightmare Before Christmas
I love how half of the examples they put at the front of the film are Danny Elfman compositions.
Same! 😂
