Requiem for a Dream

Clint Mansell · 2000

Clint Mansell’s 'Requiem for a Dream' soundtrack is a string quartet score built on repetition, acceleration, and structural recursion — not mood or melody. David Lang’s arrangements for the Kronos Quartet define its texture. 'Lux Aeterna' functions as leitmotif and pivot point. Nothing else is verified.
