I don't have a copy myself, but the Requiem in C minor is available from Amazon. Here is a link:

I guess it would probably be available from most record shops that stock classical music.

Thought Gang.

Geez, I thought everyone owned the soundtrack.  If you don't, you should. It's amazing.

I think post Gold Box we're living in a brave new world where it's never safe to assume people on the board own the soundtracks, or have even seen the series for that matter! When the More Music CD was released somebody professing to be a hardcore TP fan (I don't think it was on the board) said he hoped the song from the final episode (Sycamore Trees) would be on it. I almost died of shame on his behalf. It made me realise something was indeed different. Compared to other boards I visit there aren't many long term fans on the Twin Peaks boards (not ones that post, anyway).

Given time I'm sure people will graduate to such questions as where they can find the Tibetan Dub of Rockin' Back Inside My Heart and why Floating is three seconds shorter than the album version on (name of CD single here).

Yes, MisterGrey.   They're a Badalementi/Lynch project, but I don't believe they ever did anything other than those 2 tracks on the soundtrack. There was a tease that they would for a while on DL.com, but that entire site was a tease.

ps There's a terrible band on myspace that call themselves Thought Gang - not one and the same!

 I have "Requiem & Marche Funebre" by Cherubini, but I can't really tell which bits are used in FWWM. There are 8 tracks: Marche Funebre, Introitus et Kyrie, Graduale, Dies Irae, Domine Jesu Christe, Sanctus, Agnes Dei, Pie Jesu.

Actually, according to the credits in the Cannes presskit, the band responsible for "Pink Room" and "Blue Frank" are known as "the Power and the Glory". The Thought Gang is responsible for "A Real Indication" and "Black Dog Runs at Night"

On a side note, The Thought Gang also have a track in Mulholland Drive.

The track you want is Agnes Dei, and the part from Laura's murder begins at around 3:12 and runs through around the 4:24 mark, and then the music from the end credits pick up at about the 5:23 mark and run to the end of the track. (these marks are all assuming you have the correct recording of it; your times may vary slightly)

The first time I heard it all for myself after getting the CD, I cried like mad. It's such a powerful piece of music.

Thanks! The whole album is really good so I'll probably listen to it enough all the way through, but it's good to know what bit is actually in the film. Now I can make the exact track and tack it onto the FWWM album.

Oh, and you know when people say things like after listening to it "I cried like mad". Do you mean that literally? Because music does affect me a lot but I can't imagine crying after it. Although, incidentally, I have almost cried to that piece! But I think that was more the visuals and screaming of Laura dying. I just love that bit when Leland cries "Don't make me do this!". Oh, sends shivers up my spine.
 

While we're on this subject, does anyone know if the Rubber City album is any good. Because I love Perdita and the Dark Spanish Symphony [50s version] from Wild at Heart. And I liked the stuff David Slusser did on FWWM aswell. Rubber City is available from iTunes but the samples don't exactly inspire me to get it. It doesn't sound anywhere near as good as the WAH OST stuff.

Here's an obscure soundtrack question. In episode 21, there is a scene at the Packard's where a piece of classical music plays in the background. I suspect it's a piano concerto (Chopin perhaps?) but I can't identify the composer.

Anyone?

 Could you say at which point it is playing in the episode (after how many minutes?).

EDIT: Found it after 32 minutes of Season 2 episode 14. I don't know what piece it is though.

Yeah, that entire Requiem is really fantastic. In fact, after checking the times for you earlier, I ended up just listening to the entire album. So lovely.

Well I didn't really cry like MAD. I mean, I didn't go on like a 3-hour crying jag or anything. It's just that hearing it for that first time, I could very vividly picture that whole scene and it just got me all sad and choked up, and by the end of the piece I was sitting there with a faceful of tears. Ack!

To be honest though, it's rare that I sit through a viewing of FWWM and don't end up crying at the end. I get teased a lot for that, but I don't care. It's hard to explain because it doesn't have everything to do with the movie...when that film came out, I was going through a lot of shit in my personal life and I used FWWM to help myself wallow and escape. So there's latent shit going on there as well. But still, it's such a sad moment in the film, with Leland crying "Don't make me do this!" and Laura pretty much knowing that she had to die, and then finally getting her angel at the very end (that scene pretty much does me in).
