The Luxembourg Philharmonic in Stuttgart.

A German Requiem by Johannes Brahms was never meant for liturgical use, but for concert performance from the very beginning. The piece occupies a special place in the composer's work and in the history of the genre: a selection of personal texts instead of the traditional canonical ones, German instead of Latin, marked by Protestantism rather than Catholicism, feelings of consolation instead of despair. A hymn to humanity!
