This concert brings together two great romantic German composers, Mendelssohn and Brahms, including Brahm’s great Ein Deutsches Requiem and Mendelssohn’s Verleih uns Frieden and Hear My Prayer. The works are both rousing and comforting in nature, and the very well-loved German Requiem, which Brahms referred to as a ‘human requiem’ is written to console the living and grief in its many forms, rather than to accompany the dead.
