Programme
Johannes Brahms Vier ernste Gesänge
Gabriel Fauré Requiem
A stunning pairing of works for All Saints' Eve. Fauré's Requiem is one of the most popular works of the choral repertoire. The Requiem is ideally complemented by Brahms's Vier ernste Gesänge, his last songs, which were performed here by legendary bass Robert Holl.
Part of the Oxford Lieder Festival.
