The introit (Requiem aeternam) starts in A major and the final movement (Lux aeterna) ends in A major. Sounds as if what you heard must have been an editing mistake? Or were you listening on vinyl? ;-)

Stabat Mater or Requiem?

The vocal score of the Stabat Mater is on IMSLP too, with a four-hand reduction of the opening. That instrumental first movement begins in D minor, changing to D major, which is the dominant of the opening chorus in G minor (although it's a long movement, with a number of modulations and chromatic wanderings - it's the late nineteenth century / early twentieth century style after all!). And the last movement ("Paradisi gloria") ends in G major. Looks fairly standard to me.
