I sang this wonderful piece once in a choir with my father together. One of the great masterpieces of German music.

[@juliannewman2ndchannelmusi475]

I only discovered this piece recently, but I think this is perhaps the best rendition I've heard so far.

[@av398]

This beautiful piece of music was inspired by the Holy Spirit.

[@robertlight5227]

Brahms was an atheist.

[@berticechepyha7728]

I just saw in the description that you are the conductor. How beautiful this movement is! Thank you 🙏.

07:20 Look at the music stand in the lower-left corner, and then admire the page-turning technique: Lift page with left hand, and then turn the page with the bow. BRILLIANT!!!

[@annettearena3218]

Although this is a requiem, it ends on a hopeful note. My chorus has performed this work. It really gets me right in the heart. Talks to me of what it is to be human.

[@tlaloc210]

Agreed. In fact, Brahms wrestled with the title: He wanted it to be a work for "mankind" (his word), and felt the "German" part of the title was too narrow.

Merci ! C'est fantastique.

[@annettearena3218]

Even knowing this was Hitler’s favorite can’t keep me from loving this glorious work!!

[@jamisbillson4872]

Used in the famous “Nazis Warning from history” series. Beyond human.

In college, while I was in a Madrigal Singer choir class, our class instructor, a Lutheran Church musician, at the piano told us of the great declamation of the passage starting at 9:33, declamation, a great matching of chords and words, she explained us while playing the chords.

[@RicardoMartinez-oh9sq]

This was my favorite passage: Isaiah 35:10 Die Erlöseten des Herrn werden wieder kommen, und gen Zion kommen mit Jauchzen; ewige Freude wird über ihrem Haupte sein; Freude und Wonne werden sie ergreifen und Schmerz und Seufzen wird weg müssen.

2:47 point: How could the cameraman *not* show the tympanist during this part?!?

[@parfridberg]

Because there was no camera man 😊

[@BegoneJonah]

@@parfridberg The Tympanists' Union should have funded one. :)

Pois toda carne é como a erva e toda glória do homem como a flor da erva. Secou-se a erva e as flores já caíram. (1.Pedro 1.2,4 e 6) Pois sede pacientes, caros irmãos, até a vinda do Senhor. Eis que o lavrador espera o precioso fruto da terra e é paciente e aguarda até que receba a chuva temporã e serôdia. (Tiago 5.7) Mas a palavra fica pra sempre. (1.Pedro 1.25) Resgatados do Senhor voltarão e virão a Sião com alegria. Gozo eterno sobre as cabeças haverá. Gozo e alegria terão alcançados, e dor, gemido, fugiu deles.(Isaías 35.10)

[@ferociousgumby]

Almost unbearable. I was thinking of two friends who died years ago, and this came into my head.
