the choir music while she was looking at the photos?


Does anyone know what music was playing (sounds like a boys' choir) in the background while she was looking at the photos of the dead women?

it is "In Paradisum" from Gabriel Fauré's "Requiem"

Specifically, it is...

Requiem: 7. In Paradisum
Corydon Singers, English Chamber Orchestra, Matthew Best
Fauré: Requiem, op. 45 (1893 version), etc.
Track 7 of 14

Not all versions sound the same. I'm pretty sure this one is on the closing credits. I purchased about two CDs in order to get the right version.

(PS - Listen to the director's commentary during this scene about the music [on DVD]. Perfect choice.)

the version on Emi classics (emi budgets great classical recordings) by Birmingham orchestra is also pretty good

ps also used in intro of the tin red line (think it really was even more 'in place' there)

I know this is a bit late being that the post of this was of Oct 06', but wasn't this song also in the movie 28 Days Later?
