      The biggest reason for that is probably because Verdi had more instrumental advancements to work with.

    But the emotion is starting to get more heated and riled up... but the lid is fighting back.
    Things get boiling hot and it overflows, and the lid shoots off! And then it cools down, and ultimately comes to a quiet stop of peace...

    Actually yes, the part was originally scored for an Ophicleide, but the instrument he's using is actually called a Cimbasso, it plays in the same range as a tuba/contrabass trombone with a much much brassier tone. Apparently many orchestras nowadays replace Ophicleide parts with a Cimbasso now.

    @SillyMooon 9 років тому

    I never watched any of the trailers for the Mad Max: Fury Road movie before going to see it, so I didn't know the Verdi Dies Irae was actually in the movie but I kept swearing that I was hearing it incorporated into the soundtrack and I was so angry, thinking that the composer for Mad Max had literally just ripped off Verdi. But then, in the middle of the movie when all of a sudden the chorus comes in full force in all it's bad-ass glory, I realized that it was completely intentional. It was one of the most amazing moments in a movie film score I'd ever heard.
