I was wondering about that, since I had never heard of compositions by
Bartok by those names.  I messed up when I consulted a handy filmography to
check my memory and misread the tiny type.  The Bartok piece was actually
'Music for Strings, Percussion, and Celeste'; the Pendereski works were
also used in the film.  Sorry for the confusion.

This may be an appropriate point to acknowledge that Stanley Kubrick died
yesterday, age 70.
