@@somebody9033 under normal circumstances I'd agree with you, but I think it's a different can of worms when you're thinking about stuff like this. Also note that it's quite possibly a deliberate reference that has extramusical reasons, much like how the Dies Irae chant appears in basically anything about death
@@somebody9033 agree to disagree, then. I tend to think of that kind of short quote as a homage, which makes it acceptable in my mind, but I also acknowledge it's a fine line to walk. In any case, this piece is hella cool - might have to ask around and see if anyone near me ever plans on programming it

Movement 1 - the motif in the cor anglais is actually just blatantly copied from Schumann's adagio and allegro for horn!
Almost as if that was in the public domain when this was written? 😉
@@TheodoreBrown314 still - thieving without credit is evil!!!

@@TheodoreBrown314 yes which is why i don't think quoting dies irae is acceptable....
