In 1887 Gabriel Fauré published the first version of his Requiem. A work for soloists, choir and orchestra with an unusual running time of half an hour. There's no Dies irae sequence, instead only its last words - his famous Pie Iesu. 
Finally he added the In paradisum, a text from the exequies. This seventh and last movement is to me one of the most beautiful pieces in sacred music ever written.
