Requiem für einen jungen Dichter

Requiem für einen jungen Dichter is a large-scale requiem by German composer Bernd Alois Zimmermann, completed in 1969. The work is a fusion of orchestral, choral and taped broadcast material within a post-serial modernist idiom, and it was one of Zimmermann's late large-scale pieces that dealt with contemporary events and the use of mass media in classical composition.
