Basingstoke Choral Society

Brahms – Ein Deutsches Requiem

Come and join the Basingstoke Choral Society as they perform this beloved work, singing for the first time with their new musical director.

Brahms gained recognition as a composer, pianist, and conductor, and wrote numerous works, but his German Requiem is the only one for a large-scale choral. It was met with immediate success, establishing him as a major force in European music. The beautiful fourth movement, How Lovely are Thy Dwellings, will be particularly familiar, as it is often performed as a single piece in its own right.

To this day, the Requiem remains one of the most beloved works in the choral repertoire, not only for its grace but for its comforting message of hope for the living – a reflection on life, loss, and consolation.
