BRAHAMS REQUIEM

Experience the comfort, hope and joy found in Brahms: A German Requiem (Ein Deutsches Requiem), in this moving chorale work accompanied by a symphonic orchestra, under the baton of Dr. Solveig Holmquist. Brahms Requiem is known for its intense choral writing, featuring a “human” and deeply emotional tone. Unlike other requiems, it is focused on comforting the living rather than praying for the dead. Brahms himself chose the texts, in German from Martin Luther’s Bible, rather than following the Latin texts in the Roman Catholic Mass for the Dead. This rich and beautiful music will leave you feeling hopeful and joyful while you revel in this beautiful music.
