An Insight into "Brahms' German Requiem: A Classical Celebration" Concert

Johannes Brahms' German Requiem stands as one of his most significant and celebrated compositions, marking his longest work to date.

In contrast to the traditional Requiem text, which often focuses on the impending Day of Judgment, Brahms carefully selected passages from scripture that offer solace and hope for the bereaved and anticipation of the resurrection.

The work's style pays homage to Baroque music, featuring intricate fugues and expressive word painting. Brahms himself crafted the piano four-hands arrangement, which will be performed at this concert.

Concert Duration: Approximately 75 minutes, without intermission.
