This 95 page score, size 7 by 10 ? inches, is taken from a previous
Belwin Mills publication. It provides the choir and soloist parts
along with a piano reduction of the orchestral parts, with
notations, instrument cues, and vocal text in German language. In
the Table of Contents an English translation is included. This was
to be Brahms' longest work, in 7 movements, and was based on sacred
biblical text, in German language, and therefore did not follow the
traditional Latin requiem text. Includes: Blessed are they that
mourn * Behold, all flesh is as the grass * Lord, make me to know
the measure of my days on earth * How lovely is thy dwelling place
* Ye are now sorrowful * Here on earth we have no continuing place
* Blessed are the dead.
for SATB and organ (or piano duet) A lyric and serene sacred song,
foreshadowing the mood of the Requiem. German words are by Paul
Flemming (b. 1609) and the English singing translation has been
provided by Rutter.
Claudio Abbado conducts the Lucerne Festival Orchestra for a
performance of three works, recorded at the KKL Luzern Concert Hall
in 2013. The works are: Brahms' 'Tragic Overture'; Schoenberg's
Orchestral Interlude and 'Song of the Wood Dove' from
'Gurre-Lieder'; and Beethoven's Symphony No. 3 in E flat major
('Eroica').
Mariss Jansons leads the Chor and Symphonieorches des Bayerischen
Rundfunks in performances of Brahms' 'Symphony No.2 in D Major,
Opus 73' and Janácek's 'Glagolitic Mass', recorded live at the KKL
Concert Hall, Lucerne in 2012. The soloists are Tatiana Monogarova,
Marina Prudenskja, Ludovit Ludha and Peter Mikulás.
The Third Symphony is Brahms at his most masterful and most
appealing, from the great fanfare motive of its opening measures to
the lyrical melancholy of the world-famous POCO ALLEGRETTO
movement. The work appears here in full score, with bar-numbered
movements and ample margins at the bottom of each page for notes
and analysis.
