Experience the profound beauty of Brahms’ Ein deutsches Requiem — a deeply human work of comfort and hope. Unlike traditional requiems, Brahms’ masterpiece offers solace not for the dead, but for the living, with soaring choral writing and lush orchestration. Join us for an unforgettable afternoon of reflection, compassion, and transcendent music. Also on the program is Antonín Dvořák’s Te Deum.

Johannes Brahms’ Ein Deutsches Requiem (A German Requiem) is unique within the genre. Rather than set the Latin text from the Roman Catholic liturgy, Brahms assembled a sacred text that addresses the living, “Blessed are they that mourn, for they shall be comforted”. Brahms himself stated that he would have preferred to title the work “A Human Requiem”. This masterpiece remains one of the most affecting compositions in the choral / orchestral repertoire, beloved by audiences and singers alike.
