hello Mr Bill my friend - the Brahms' German Requiem is one of the most heavenly pieces of choral music ever. Sounds like a fantastic concert/tribute. David

David..Hope you can tune in as it should be good.. can adjust for time in your area I am sure.

It should be an excellent event. The Brahms and theFaure are my two favorite Requiems. I am not familiar with the soprano bu Eric Owens is an excellent baritone. a fitting tribute.

Brahms "Ein Deutsches Requiem" will certainly not leave any heart, soul, spirit, or mind untouched........
