Doesn't the Brahms Requiem finish one movement with a huge fugue section that
is essentially a D chord?

Here is a link to the score of that movement on the IMSLP.org site. It
has a very long D pedal point, starting at meas. 173 - page 110, (bass
trombonists know it well) but there is harmonic activity (mostly I
ii6 V repeated) on top of that:

Can anyone recommend some works or significant parts of works that are
based on one or two chords only?
So far I have:
Monteverdi: Prelude to L'Orfeo (D major)
Wagner: Prelude to Das Rheingold (Eb major)
Ross Edwards: Maninya V (two chords)
Stockhausen: Stimmung (1 chord)
I'm sure there are many others I'm missing: any suggestions?
Matthew
