The movement I heard was this (details taken from BBC Radio 3 playlists):
Ingemisco (Requiem)
Luciano Pavarotti
Orchestra of the Lyric Arena of Verona/Gerhard Fackler
DECCA 425 043-2 Tr 7x
That it was Pavarotti was obvious to me even listening to the recording
from another room! Perhaps if I'd heard another singer performing it I
might have been less impressed.
