Season Ticket ’VÁSÁRY’
Like so many of Brahms’ large-scale compositions his piece entitled ‘A German Requiem’ also quickly reached Hungarian audiences. The work was performed in Hungary in 1884, and even the dress rehearsal generated enormous interest. Brahms compiled the text of the piece from various books of the Holy Scriptures. He used psalms, gospels, the epistles of the apostles, prophetic books, and in two cases even apocryphal texts, and composed music to these writings. Through his choice of texts, Brahms placed the idea of death at the centre of each movement of the piece. According to Hungarian composer Zoltán Horusitzky, Brahms does not paint “a metaphysical world, but creates only its reflection in man’s eternal nostalgia. This provides both longing and reassurance at the same time. This music is not realistic, nor is it transcendental, nor is it brilliantly cheerful, nor is it dark and gloomy, but it is all of these things combined.”
