Written between 1865-1868, EIN DEUTSCHES REQUIEM (A GERMAN REQUIEM), Op. 45, was Johannes Brahms' (1833-1897) longest work. The seven movement mass sets Martin Luther's translation of Biblical text to music, with the libretto having been completed by the composer. The work premiered on February 18, 1869, at the Gewandhaus in Leipzig, Carl Reinecke conducting the Gewandhaus chorus and orchestra, with the solos sung by Emilie Bellingrath-Wagner (soprano) and Dr. Kückl (baritone). The work remains a regular part of the repertoire. The central fourth movement, WIE LIEBLICH SIND DEINE WOHUNGEN (HOW LOVELY THY DWELLING), serves as the spiritual keystone in its seven-part structure and often appears independently in choral concerts. Instrumentation: 2+Picc.2.2.2+CBsn(opt): 4.2.3.1: Timp: Hp(opt).Org(opt): Str (4-4-3-3-3 in set): Soli S.Bar: Mix Chor.
