Classical music
Almost all Catholic liturgical music composed before the middle of the 20th century, including thousands of settings of the ordinary of the mass (Gloria, Credo, Sanctus, Agnus Dei), the ordinary and proper of the Requiem mass, psalms, canticles (such as the Magnificat), antiphons, and motets. Famous examples include:
Johann Sebastian Bach – Mass in B Minor, four Missae, Magnificat, cantata BWV 191
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart – Ave Verum Corpus, Requiem
Carl Orff – Carmina Burana, Meum est propositum in taberna mori
Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina – Missa Papae Marcelli
Antonio Vivaldi – Nulla in mundo pax sincera
The libretto for the opera-oratorio Oedipus rex by Igor Stravinsky is in Latin, as well as the 1963 choral composition Cantata misericordium by Benjamin Britten.
