Info for Brahms: Ein deutsches Requiem

A major benchmark work of the choral tradition of which a significant new recording has not appeared for some years, this release is highly attractive to all markets and has the potential to become the definitive modern interpretation of this wonderfully powerful and moving work.

“…this is a very impressive account of Brahms's German Requiem, deeply considered and most beautifully played and sung. The full, warm sound he draws from the Berlin Philharmonic has a sombre refulgence that becomes almost incandescent in the final movement's vision of the blessed dead. The vocal component is equally impressive, with beautiful choral singing. Thomas Quasthoff is an eloquent expounder of scripture in the baritone movements, Dorothea Röschmann ideally tender in 'Ihr habt nun Traurigkeit'.” (BBC Music Magazine)

“The music comforts, calms, suggests hope, whilst still acknowledging the tragedy of death, and under Simon Rattle's baton the choir and orchestra have got to the heart of it; they bring out all the nuances of emotion, and one feels they really understand it...Dorothea Roschmann's beautiful, rich soprano voice delivers the impassioned tenderness the listener craves.” (Charlotte Gardner, BBC)
