Since its first complete performance in 1869 at the Gewandhaus in Leipzig, Brahms' A German Requiem has been indisputably one of the key works in oratorio history. The rank of the work results not only from its unusually dense musical texture, but also from the original textual idea: Brahms himself compiled key sayings from the Old and New Testaments in Luther's translation in such a way that the guiding principles of "mourning" and "consolation" are clearly related to each other. In contrast to many other oratorios of the 19th century, Brahms places the choir, the voice of the community, at the centre of his interdenominational funeral service. The basis of the critical edition is the first edition of the score authorized by Johannes Brahms. Thanks to the arrangement for chamber orchestra (arr. J. Linckelmann Carus 27.055/50), it is also possible to perform the work on a smaller scale. Also available is an arrangement of the orchestral movement for two pianos (Carus 23.006/03).
