About

Almost 150 years after the premiere of A German Requiem op.45 by its composer Johannes Brahms in the Bremen Cathedral, this unique event was reconstructed in its original performance space. The musicians who guarantee us this historical authenticity are the Bremen Cathedral Choir under its director Wolfgang Helbich.

A German Requiem is a masterpiece of grand scale choral music par excellence reflecting at one and the same time perfect craftsmanship and absolutely overwhelming mastery of the art of sacred composition. It is distinguished by Brahms’s special tone aiming at consolation. His requiem, in contrast to liturgical masses of the dead, is not for the dead but for the living. (Re-issue)
