The devil's trill.
Anything from any version of Faust.
We should be able to produce a very good chorus for the Dream of
Gerontius (the demons taunting the soul as he progresses to heaven).
At least two Mozart operas - Don Giovanni and The Magic Flute.

This is revelatory. I keep hearing complaints that most music is sacred
and doesn't give much scope for the secular and non-religious. On the
other hand, Wesley asked why the devil should have all the best tunes.
When you start looking for demonic music, the list appears as long as
the religious. Sometimes it even seems to win. The last movement of
Berlioz's Symphonie Fantastique turns the Dies Irae from the Requiem
Mass into something profoundly profane and demonic.
