A work between dignity and confidence

A German Requiem is considered one of the central choral symphonic works by Brahms. The piece was composed between 1865 and 1868 and combines choir, orchestra, and solo voices into an urgent sound speech that centers on comfort and intimacy. This exact mixture of musical architecture and emotional depth characterizes the concert experience in Bonn.
