  • BBC radio broadcast, 13 August 1997, featuring the choir of St John’s College Cambridge with the BBC Philharmonic Orchestra, conducted by Christopher Robinson. Organ scholar: Peter Davis.
    This is the fourth movement of Brahms’ 1868 “Ein deutsches Requiem” (Op. 45). The text (originally “Wie lieblich sind deine Wohnungen”) is based on Psalm 84:
    How lovely are thy dwellings fair, O Lord of Hosts.
    My soul ever longeth and fainteth sore for the blest courts of the Lord:
    My heart and flesh do cry to the living God.
    O blest are they that in thy house are dwelling:
    They ever praise thee, O Lord, for evermore.
