A German Requiem Concert Tickets
Enjoy a performance of the iconic work from Brahms with your A German Requiem tickets from TicketSmarter. A German Requiem was composed by Johannes Brahms between 1865 and 1868. The full title for the piece is “A German Requiem, to the Words of the Holy Scriptures.” It was written to be performed by a chorus, orchestra and multiple vocal soloists. Seven movements are included in the piece. When performed, the work can typically last for 60 to 85 minutes.
There is speculation that the inspiration for A German Requiem came from the feelings of grief that plagued Brahms. Shortly before it was written, he lost his mother. Prior to that loss, Brahms was mourning the death of fellow composer and friend Robert Schumann. A German Requiem was first performed in Bremen Cathedral on Good Friday, April 1868. Julius Stockhausen served as the baritone soloist while Brahms conducted.
