        Of course - Beethoven's Grosse Fugue op 133 was the original finale of the 13th quartet op 132 whose 5th and subsequently final movement was Cavatina.

        Is that molto espressivo enough for you?

                            No, you got them all. Heart of Darkness was also made into an opera http://www.roh.org.uk/whatson/production.aspx?pid=17248
