A German Requiem by Brahms, 周日 21 10月 2018, 从 (2018/2018), 导体 Vasily Petrenko, Philharmonic Hall, Liverpool, United Kingdom

‘Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted’. When Johannes Brahms wrote his German Requiem, he wasn’t thinking of heaven or hell. Instead, he set out to console the living, in one of the warmest and most moving choral works of the 19th century. One of the country’s great choirs sings it today, with the rising star soprano Louise Alder (Best Young Singer at the International Opera Awards 2017) amongst the soloists, while Vasily Petrenko sets the mood with the colourful Hindemith Overture.
