Join the Colorado Women's and Men's Chorales for one of the most
celebrated pieces ever composed and an evening of uplifting and
gorgeous music, The Brahms Requiem. The Brahms’ Requiem is a
particularly unique work among requiems. The requiem mass was a
respected musical genre by the time Brahms began his composition, but
his would be unlike any other. By using German instead of Latin, and
themes of comfort to the living instead of prayers for the souls of
the dead, Brahms wrote a requiem that is lovely, peaceful and hopeful
and is a tribute to his beloved mother. Brahms’ Requiem cemented
Brahms place as a venerable composer and this piece a masterwork.
