Brahms

Brahms' Requiem
Ein Deutsches Requiem

Saturday October 23, 8:00pm
Sunday, October 24, 4:00pm

Cunningham Memorial Chapel
(Notre Dame de Namur)
1500 Ralston Avenue
Belmont - map

This work of immense compassion and beauty was written as a tribute to Brahms’ mother and his close friend the great composer, Robert Schumann.  To reach people more directly, Brahms chose German text from the Bible rather than the typical Latin to create this very “human requiem”;  a tribute to the living, not the dead.   Join Masterworks Chorale in one of the most satisfying, profound and soul-inspiring choral experiences the world has to offer.

Also on the program, Kyrie by Rene Claussen, Muero, porque no  muero by Gian Carlo Menotti, composer of the holiday classic Amahl and the Night Visitors, and the beloved Alleluia, Amen by Randall Thompson.
