If someone liked "Requiem for a Dream", I say it is impossible not to like this music. They are masterpieces that simply put emotions directly in your heart.
0:00 - 1:22 "Ghosts Of a Future Lost" 1:23 - 4:19 "Meltdown" 4:19 - 8:07 "Lux Aeterna" All of these pieces are from Requiem for a Dream and were composed by Clint Mansell. You can find them on the original soundtrack.
Réquiem for a Dream: una de mis películas favoritas. De las mejores. Lux Aeterna: Mi tema. Amo estas cuerdas. Las notas son encantadoras, oscuras, dolorosas, placenteras, te transportan a otro sitio. La sensación de esta música es magníficamente indescriptible. PRECIOSO. HERMOSO. Kronos Quartet tradujo lo que es un sueño muréndose; un Réquiem para un sueño. Gracias por compartirlo completo.
61 people came to watch a performance from the movie without caring about the true musician. when they grow up they will learn what time and patience it takes to make beautiful music.
Requiem for a Dream is the most haunting film I've seen to this date. On top of that, it has the most powerful score of all time. Just listening to these songs sends shivers down your spine.
I'm so glad to have found this live performance. You're right, many know about the Requiem for the Two Towers but not this I guess...but for those of us who really love the music for itself, we know the original to our hearts. As for the actual movie...I guess because it was banned in many places, so not many got to seeing it? Pity.
My god, I never though these pieces, "Meltdown" especially, could be played live. I thought they were all mostly pieced together in the studio. Seeing these being created live is mindblowing!!
i love rap, hip hop, salsa, merengue, electronic and house music but ive never enjoyed music like this... i love mozart and beethoven but this song is haunting! it scares me. clint mansell is amazing and so is kronos quartet.
I was absolutely amazed to discover that this music is actually played on strings by humans! When I saw Requiem for a Dream I thought for sure the music had to have all been done electronically!
Ah, you missed the point. I like electronic music as well and that's what I though it was. I'm amazed that these performers are able to create such sounds, even live, and with traditional instruments!
Omg one of the skating couples in the winter olympics just used this song for their performance! :D I knew I'd heard it before, so I came to youtube to check and I was totally right, lol!
I don't know what some people are talking about. For any of you who own the Requiem For A Dream soundtrack, all three parts to it, you'll know that this whole thing is by Mansell. Everything you hear in this video is something from the soundtrack, save for the first minute or so which I don't recognize, is all from the soundtrack.
i cant believe i cried while listenin to. i love this, specially the meltdown, not just the extremly popular piece of luz aeterna (then used in TLOTR), is a trully show of the strong of the "modern" classical muzic.
deym! i have to thank carlos dengler for leading me into these geniuses! i love requiem for a dream and love the ost but i didn't kronos was the one who performed the brilliant soundtrack.. kudos!
hey there, two towers version is from the second film in the lord of the rings trilogy. I fell in love with this film (requiem)and the music so noticed when a remix appeared on the LOTR trailer. That version has gone on to be well overused as backing music on television..bet it's on you tube somewhere! sorry for lengthy elaboration!
:05 - 1:23 - sad beginning. 1:24 - 4:19 - creepy music that went along with the climax of the movie. 4:20 - 8:07 - theme song of the movie. All together - genius.
@jairjkd81! At first: Sorry for my bad english! The complete set of this is from RFAD! The first sequence is ever heard in the movie, when Marion and Harry having some close "moments"! You can hear this in the Soundtrack-Dounle-CD of RFAD! The best Soundtrack i've ever heard... and RFAD is my favourite movie!

Gracias por compartirlo completo.
"Lux Aeterna" gets me every damn time. It is so freaking beautiful and powerful. It's like a younger cousin of "O Fortuna".
wow ~~ still can't believe there's only 250 views for this video .. i'd expect something like 2.5 million or something .. great piece !!
1.1 million now!!!
Saddest song of all time if you have seen the movie!
This music was in the movie, all of it. I would love to see the Kronos quartet live. Their music sends chills down my spine
If you ever have the opportunity, see them. Dont hesitate...just go and listen.
The music was in the movie and WAS the movie to a great degree. Creative genius = its composition,
and no hyperbole whatsoever in that evaluation.

Lived in Athens the last 4 years and I missed you guys at Niarcos. I'll regret it till the day I die.
One of the most gripping, creative, incredible pieces ever to be written and performed. Fantastic!
4:20 onward will go down in time as one of the best musical pieces ever.
Haunting piece...brilliant
There aren't words to describe music like this. It's like an expression of pure soul.
Gorgeous. Absolutely gorgeous...
I love how it only takes 4 instrumentalists to make such sounds of epic proportions!
absolutely brilliant..hope to see the musicians once
I'm so glad to have found this live performance. You're right, many know about the Requiem for the Two Towers but not this I guess...but for those of us who really love the music for itself, we know the original to our hearts. As for the actual movie...I guess because it was banned in many places, so not many got to seeing it? Pity.
it scares you... but at the same time you can't stop listening to it..
I love how it changes at 4:20. This music is so haunting, surreal, captivating, and beautiful!
My god, I never though these pieces, "Meltdown" especially, could be played live. I thought they were all mostly pieced together in the studio. Seeing these being created live is mindblowing!!
KQ and Samaritna Song are just about all I listen to these days.... Thanks for the great art guys.
i love rap, hip hop, salsa, merengue, electronic and house music but ive never enjoyed music like this... i love mozart and beethoven but this song is haunting! it scares me. clint mansell is amazing and so is kronos quartet.
kathy160 tottally agree
piesa asta e geniala regret ca nu am fost la Bucuresti cand au fost ei...
it makes me cry,panic,anything they want me to feel Genious
I was absolutely amazed to discover that this music is actually played on strings by humans! When I saw Requiem for a Dream I thought for sure the music had to have all been done electronically!
i dont understand why you were amazed. cause electronic music can be great if done correctly and since you cant tell the difference just proves it.
Ah, you missed the point. I like electronic music as well and that's what I though it was. I'm amazed that these performers are able to create such sounds, even live, and with traditional instruments!
This group actually performed this in the soundtrack :)
HailAnts d
Fantastic music and musicians! Will always love this score. The camera work here was damn annoying, though! Oy! Damn you Cezar!
This group is one reason why I mainly listen to contemporary music.
My love of chamber music started with Kronos Quartet.. Thank You!!!!!
amazing. it invokes all the emotions you feel when you watch the movie in 8 minutes
Omg one of the skating couples in the winter olympics just used this song for their performance! :D
I knew I'd heard it before, so I came to youtube to check and I was totally right, lol!
Breathtaking performance! Give this clip some time, the views should build!
THE WHOLE THING IS SOOOOO RELAXING!
