Abstract
Verdi's influence on Britten's music is an important one, though recognizable in certain details of texture, accompanimental figures, and orchestration more than in any distinct similarities of melody and harmony. Not surprisingly it is especially prominent in Britten's full-scale operas, but it is in the likenesses between Verdi's Requiem and Britten's War Requiem that we find perhaps the most striking example of it. Both works were written for great public occasions, and in both a sense of public involvement is reflected in the sheer size of the works as well as in the large number of singers and players needed to perform them.
