Requiem for a Dying Planet (subtitled Sounds for Two Films by Werner Herzog) is an album by cellist Ernst Reijseger featuring music for Werner Herzog's 2004 documentary The White Diamond and 2005 film The Wild Blue Yonder performed with vocalist/poet/performer Mola Sylla and the Voches de Sardinna.

[2] In his review for Allmusic, Dave Shim said "Combining Reijseger’s formidable skills in the grey regions between jazz, improvised, and chamber music, with the mesmerizing vocal talents of Senegalese singer Mola Sylla and Sardinian vocal choir Voches de Sardinna, the album covers an extraordinarily wide range of moods and textures, from vaguely liturgical atmospheres to threatening drones to delicate percussive vignettes—eliciting a mysterious aura contemplative of planet Earth’s hereafter".

[6] On AllAboutJazz C. Michael Bailey rated the album five stars and observed "Requiem for a Dying Planet is hypnotic in its beauty and stunning in its scope.

[3] On the same site Glenn Astarita gave the album 3 stars stating "If you're in need of a spiritual or life-lifting boost, you might want to rethink or perhaps defer spinning this disc.

Regardless of taste, preference or attitude, this is a curiously interesting progression of musical frameworks, setting forth notions of divine contemplation prior to a doomsday-like event.
