What a bastardization of the Dies Irae.  Has anyone here ever heard the chant?    It's not hard to get   a copy of the original chant, and extend from there. Beautiful? R U kidding?    I've got toothpicks in my eyes to keep them open.

The hymn "Christ, enthroned in highest Heaven" is a translation of the little known 13th c. Sequence "De profundis exclamantes" for the Requiem Mass for the faithful departed "De profundis exclamantes" was formerly the more popular Sequence than the "Dies Irae", which eventually replaced it in the 15th and 16th c. In many respects the "De profundis" is a more fitting sequence for funerals, Dies irae moreso for before Advent. Vat II had a decent point there, but went about it too strongly.

I haven't a clue as to what they are singing but the organ sounds magnificent.
