Rafael Payare, conductor Julie Boulianne, soprano Michael Sumuel, bass-baritone San Diego Symphony Chorus San Diego Symphony Orchestra BRAHMS: "A German Requiem" (Ein deutsches Requiem), Op. 45 Brahms is not only one of the most famous and cherished composers in all of 19th century music, but an artist of rich and wonderful contradictions. A musical architect of incredible intellectual skill, he wrote music that tugs instinctively at every human heart. Anyone can listen to it and be deeply moved and captivated by it, but each of us will always find that there is more and more to discover in it. Brahms, in a word, is a whole world of feelings and of melody. This San Diego Symphony festival is a rare occasion, bringing together some of his best-loved pieces – his four symphonies, his violin concerto and his ravishingly beautiful "German Requiem" – so that we can listen to them all in a single breath. Don’t miss this opportunity to take a deep dive into one of the greatest musical imaginations that ever lived! San Diego Symphony on Facebook / Instagram
