Elegy
An elegy is a poem of serious reflection, and in English literature usually a lament for the dead. However, according to ''The Oxford Handbook of the Elegy'', "for all of its pervasiveness ... the 'elegy' remains remarkably ill defined: sometimes used as a catch-all to denominate texts of a somber or pessimistic tone, sometimes as a marker for textual monumentalizing, and sometimes strictly as a sign of a lament for the dead". History The Greek term ἐλεγείᾱ (''elegeíā''; from , , ‘lament’) originally referred to any verse written in elegiac couplets and covering a wide range of subject matter (death, love, war). The term also included epitaphs, sad and mournful songs, and commemorative verses. The Latin elegy of ancient Roman literature was most often erotic or mythological in nature. Because of its structural potential for rhetorical effects, the elegiac couplet was also used by both Greek and Roman poets for witty, humorous, and satirical subject matter. Oth ...

Elegia (Madetoja)
''Elegia'' (In English: ''Elegy''; occasionally with the Finnish subtitle ', or ''Sadness''), Op. 4/1, is a composition for string orchestra by the Finnish composer Leevi Madetoja, who wrote the piece in 1909 during his student years. On 10 January 1910, Robert Kajanus, chief conductor of the Helsinki Orchestral Society, premiered the ''Elegia'' to great acclaim, with the piece described as the "first master work" of a budding "natural orchestral composer". Madetoja subsequently designated the ''Elegia'' as the first number in his four-movement ''Sinfoninen sarja'' (''Symphonic Suite''), Op. 4, which the Helsinki Orchestral Society performed in its entirety under the composer's baton on 26 September 1910. The suite's three other numbers are virtually unknown, and the ''Elegia'' typically is performed as a stand-alone concert piece. Stylistically reminiscent of Tchaikovsky, it is, to date, Madetoja's most recorded and well-known orchestral composition, as well as the most endurin ...

"Elegia" is an instrumental composed and performed by the British rock band New Order. It was released on their third studio album, ''Low-Life'' (1985). The track was written and produced by Gillian Gilbert, Peter Hook, Stephen Morris and Bernard Sumner.

Due to its somber mood, it has been used in a variety of media, including Pretty in Pink, Stranger Things and The Crown. Elegia is Greek for elegy. Background Elegia was originally written for a film commissioned by i-D magazine and was inspired by Ennio Morricone's ''For A Few Dollars More'' score. The film was not completed, so the band saved the recording for their upcoming album. Elegia was recorded at CTS Studios in Wembley in a single, 24-hour session with the working title ‘Ben and Justin’. It is in the key of A minor with a time signature of 12/8. The song uses the E-mu Emulator II for several ...
