This is the sound of Heaven. Brahms and the musicians and singers are ministers to my worried soul and pained body. I am so grateful hearing this, so grateful to be a Human Being, alive today.
The right words, but if you listen on after 8:48 it can be really intense and sad provided that you surrender your feeling to the music in a context of global tensions and climate change.
The flutist is so angelically expressive.
gasped when they first came in
This piece is the epitome of the painful, deep pining that the idealist must carry with them their entire life - Ihr wandelt droben im Licht (you - the gods - walk up there in the light), doch uns ist gegeben auf keiner Stätte zu ruhen, es swinden, es fallen die leidenden Menschen! Simply beautiful and eternally relatable.

This is Brahms at his luscious devastatingly beautiful best. I also particularly love the German Requiem which I sung at school 50 plus years ago. There are so many cross references in these two works and the Schicksalslied always seems like a mini Deutches Requiem for when I don't have time to listen to the whole Requiem. Apart from all that we have here a beautiful perfomance from choir and orchestra.
+professordodo1 yes yes and yes! my sentiments exactly! have said this for years about the mini-requiem! :)
And I have to concur with your comment about the performance. Such beautiful intonation and diction - so rare even for professionals! As for Brahms, well ... Wow! Scrumptious! Showcased at his best!
I did not know this work, but I'm hearing so much of the Requiem in it. Exquisite.
When I was an undergraduate at Westminster Choir College in the 1990s, our Symphonic Choir did both the Deutsches Requiem and the Shickalslied with Kurt Masur and the NY Philharmonic in one program. One of the most sublime musical experiences of my life.
@@avargh Me too, I was in my first semester at University of Stuttgart and we performed it in Cap d'Ail, Cote d'Azur, in this wonderful amphitheatre under the nocturnal sky
Diese Aufnahme ist ein VERMÄCHTNIS! Wie wunderschön und präzise Chor und Orchester die Phrasierung rüberbringen. Und die Dynamik: Vom pianissimo bis zum fortissimo absolut stimmig!
Ich liebe Brahms! I love Brahms! J'aime Brahms! And in my natural language, portuguese: EU AMO BRAHMS!

I've been listening to classical music since I was 14, and I must say that this piece has to be the absolute pinnacle of the genre. It simply doesn't get more heart wrenchingly brilliant than this. Thank you Brahms for letting us hear the the sound of your immortal soul singing relentlessly from beyond your grave.
therefore : vitae brevis ars longa i once sung that in the Berlin Philharmony in a choir and was deeply moved to tears while singing, it was tough to concentrate. Hearing it again, over time and more knowledge about the Antique mothology increases the innerst feeling. In the same vain, one can listen to Brahm's Nänie also a touching work (of course, the music and the poetry by two really pure romantic poets (Hölderlin and Schiller)
Just gorgeous! Singing this with my choir next month along with the German Requiem at Carnegie Hall! What a match made in heaven! Going to be glorious! How did I not know this piece before a few months ago! It is so beautiful I cry. Going to be hard performing it!
We are also singing the 2 pieces in Winchester Cathedral, Hampshire, England on Saturday 25th November 2017. Such wonderful, moving music. Hope your concert goes well!
I had to play the Brahms Requiem the week a friend lay dying of AIDS; I wept through the whole thing from the viola section. But to sing it? You are stronger than me!
I love Carnegie. My college many years ago did Durufle's Requiem there. Was amazing.
What a beautiful performance! Brahms embracing art is pure joy! I I will sing this great piece soon! Brahms is always a glimpse of heaven on earth 💖
Diese erstaunliche Leistung dieses Meisterwerks hat mich sehr tief berührt. Sehr vielen Dank!
an absolute heartbreaker of a piece. and what a performance!
Brahms can bring tears to the eyes in 60 seconds. Who else can do that?
Extremely beautiful... I had the occasion to sing this master piece when I was in a choir as a bass, and it's probably one of the classical pieces I enjoyed more.
My former roommate sang it as alto and I was at her concert. They performed in a church only accompanied by an organ. It was magnificent.
Hörte es heut per zufall im radio....hölderlin und brahms.welche Offenbarung!
It doesn't often get better than this. Thanks to all for this performance, Hi, Thadeus!
What an absolutely astounding and enchanting piece! The performance by the Collegium Vocale of Ghent under Phillipp Herreweghe and the large orchestra were magical, and I must add, the videographer and editor did a brilliant job. My appreciation of Brahms' s "other side' [the lesser known] grows by the day thanks to UA-cam. Please, give us more. Thank You.
Brahms is een genie, zoals vele andere klassieke componisten. Gelukkig maar. Zoveel is intens te voelen door hun muziek. Terug te komen bij je ware gevoel. De tekst is goddelijk.
That choir is amazing and orchestra of course. The phrasing is magnificent for this wonderful, enigmatic prophecy of a masterpiece
For anyone wondering, the second "half" of the piece (doch uns ist gegeben, you know, the intense part) starts at about 8:59
Thanks brother
Brahms 'Destiny Song' is THE SAGA of LIFE! The contrast of the DIVINE - GOD vs the fate of MAN. The sequence of the music with the Andate Prelude symbolises the peaceful cosmos where the GODS dwell. The poem along with the melody develops into the highlights of the challenging times that await the fate of MAN. Listening to Brahms work one can feel such power, force, an appealing poetic beauty full of the power of expression (Hector Berlioz.).The performance by the Collegium Vocale of Ghent under Phillipp Herreweghe and the large orchestra presents a superb performance accompanied by confidence, harmony, grace and beauty.
You are absolutely correct! The poem is by one of the finest poets of all time, Friedrich Hölderlin, from his novel Hyperion. Brahms perfectly portrays the poems emotions more than 70 years later.
Beautiful performance. At 16:28 the lady forgot her mute and made one out of a dollar bill. Nice.
No dollar probably an euro but funny how did you see that
Charles Gunsaullus it’s not either of them, it’s a ducks bill! And Brahms is at the top of my Dollar/Euro
Ma version préférée de cette émouvante composition, chantée avec tant de douceur.
Brahms gave considerable thought to the ending of this work. He finally decided to repeat the orchestral introduction, but in a different key, so the sequence becomes E flat major, C minor, C major. The harmonic sequence beginning about 5:32, "Heiligen Saiten" (holy strings) is meltingly, almost unbearably beautiful. (Brahms has marked this beginning section "sehnsuchtvoll", filled with longing.)
One of his biographers says this completely undermines the thrust of the poem...which ends bleakly. But Brahms put music before the words I think. I have no objection.
Beautiful chorus together with beautiful accompaniment by orchestra! This masterpiece should be more often performed and more highly estimated.
Esteemed
It is both of those. There are many recordings of it available, both on disc and on YT. It is highly esteemed by conductors and performers, and those of us who listen.
This sounded fabulous. What a sensitive, and spiritual performance given by Phillipp Herreweghe, Collegium Vocale Gent, and the Frankfurt Radio Symphony.
Brahms n'est pas né pour être heureux et pourtant quel bonheur que de l'entendre dans ses œuvres chorales où il a excellé dès son plus jeune âge avec une telle profondeur musicale et spirituelle, pour notre plus grand plaisir.
immer wieder erstaunlich, wie aus einem Ensemble, einer Altstimme im Chor.. ein so großartiges Gesamtkunstwerk entsteht, Verkörpend die Hybris des Menschen.-- Gerne auf warmem Sessel hockend die Natur nur aus der Tagesschau kennt
BRAHMS es excepcional y esta obra la canté cuando no había cumplido 20 años y aún podría cantarla de memoria, me emociona! (Muy buena versión)
OMG! at 6:15
BRAHMS' Alto Rhapsody, Piano Concerto No. 2, Requiem... so many beautiful pieces!
Stunning, beautiful performance worthy of this gem.
Con questa opera Brahms raggiunge una delle vette più alte della sua produzione musicale . Il Lied del destino accarezza l'anima come un momento d'amore sereno e felice, per poi trasportarti in un mondo di incertezza e di tragica fatalità . Chi può prevedere : il destino riguarda il futuro , dove la fortuna ( vox media tra bene e male) , come bene ha descritto Boezio nel "De consolatione philosophiae" può significare tutto o niente. Aut-aut.Coro e orchestra si integrano perfettamente, con una melodia dolce e struggente nello stesso tempo.
¡¡Maravilloso!!
Es un gran desafío prepararse para esta espectacular obra.
Just beautiful ....
La millor versió que he escoltat mai, tant com a Director, Coral i Orquestra.
Moltes felicitats a TOTS!!!!
Für meinen Geschmack: Eines der ganz großen Orchester !!!
was für ein wunderbarer Gesang! mir bleibt nur mich zu bedanken
Una de las obras más inspiradas de Brahms. Digna traducción de los inmortales versos de Hölderlin.
Ezt próbáltam éppen, amikor a fiam tragikus hirtelenséggel meghalt. A koncertet nem játszottam. Hölderlin versére örökre emlékezem.
Wunderschöner Chorgesang zusammen mit wunderschöner Orchesterbegleitung! Dieses Meisterwerk soll viel häufiger aufgeführt und viel höher geschätzt werden.
Great performance!
Thank you, HR, for posting this performance of Schicksalslied too, so quickly after the 2022 performance under Sr. Orozco-Estrada. I echo the positive comments posted earlier; not really too much to add to that. Except: genial! JAT
Ohhh Brahms Brahms Brahms! Formidabile, meraviglioso!
I've watched this many times and look forward to the very expressive solo from the Principal Flautist, Clara Andrada de la Calle, near the end of the piece. The Chorus -- Collegium Vocale Gent -- is of course superb, singing with perfect intonation in all voice sections (that's sort of rare these days) and excellent diction and the playing of the hr-S is outstanding as usual. There's another version of this with the hr-S and in that Sebastian Wittiber is the Principal Flautist. (He and Clara rotate that position). His interpretation is slightly different than that of Clara's but equally as good. One takes a breath at one place rather than carry the phrase over and the other does not as I remember. I forget which one does what, but they're both excellent.
--Friedrich Hölderlin, Schicksalslied (The Song of Destiny). Johannes Brahms, between 1868-1871, completed the homonym composition, work 54, for a mixed chorus.
--Friedrich Hölderlin, Schicksalslied (Το Τραγούδι του Πεπρωμένου). Johannes Brahms μεταξύ 1868-1871, ολοκλήρωσε την ομώνυμη σύνθεση, έργο 54, για μικτή χορωδία.
If you put it on 1.25 speed it’s the same tempo for TMEA.... you’re welcome 👌🏽
dylan ramirez those entrances in the second half are gonna kill me
dylan ramirez oh frick ya what region are you in
beautiful
Wundervolle Aufnahme, berührend und ergreifend!
Ganz großartig! Super! Danke fürs teilen! VG Gregor D.
Solamente meraviglioso ! ! !
Das hier und das deutsche Requiem sind die Werke, die Brahms zu einem der bedeutendsten Komponisten der Geschichte machen.
Wunderschöne Aufführung!
정말 아름다운 곡입니다.
... wunderschön ... !
Fantastic. Thank you!!! 🙏🙏🙏
Magnífico¡¡¡¡¡¡ BRAVOOOOO¡¡¡¡¡¡
Agradezco reproducción estupenda de versión de canto suave y bello y ocasionalmente enérgico del destino. Tal vez, asimismo, se posibilite en un futuro presentación con mismo coro y orquesta del Réquiem de Durufle sin faltar la inclusión del órgano y/o armonio. Felicidades !!
wat een perfectie!!!!!!!
French Horn part is lovely
Magnífico! 😍 ❤
Una excelentísima versión de la obra más bella de Brahms. Casi se puede tocar el cielo
so beautiful
If someone has the opportunity come to Malmö Opera on the 5th of May. Then you will listen to this wonderful piece of music and also the third symphony. I look forward to listening to my favorite composer.
I love the entrance, the strong medium part and the slow conclusion of this wonderful choral.
Small brother of Brahms' Requiem, it has all the "terribilità" which Nietzsche didn't get to guess into the hamburguer-composer's workbook.
Perfect interpretation.
I didn't understand this reference to Nietzsche can you explain
@@Anicius_ Nietzsche, defender of the strength and the will into the arts, didn't get to notice this worths into Brahms Music. I suppose, in fact, that Brahms was, for the philosopher of Ulm, as an artist branch to be tied when Wagner, before friend and after rival, drop him out.
So Brahms wasn't dionisiac, but terribly consoling to him.
I would say near-perfect interpretation. For example at 6:40 Brahms marks in the score "piano" and they sing more like a mezzo forte or forte. It is meant to sing a intense piano in this passage.
Sehr eindrucksvoll!
Truly outstanding.
I can't help but hear Wagner's Lohengrin (first performed in 1850) in the first and last few bars of this beautiful music which was first performed 18 October 1871
.
AlliBee: It is hard for me to imagine that Brahms "quoted" even a single phrase from wagner. As we all know, Brahms LOATHED Wagner and thought that his music was noisily trite.
Its Absolutely Brahms"Vocal simphony" ,like Alto Rhapsody or yet "Requiem" ... ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Wonderful!!
Sublime -thank you all
Красиво очень умиротворяюще вначале. А потмом все как в жизни... Спасибо
Oh God this is amazing
Schee! Oba wos nutzt ma die konsonantische Perfektion, wanns die Vokale olle gleich kling'n?
Oba a Superchor is des! Bravo und Danke!
prachtige uitvoering!
Brahms' main employment had been choir directing so it's not surprising that so many of his compositions have human voice in them.
*Oh the beauty !*
-who else is freaking out bc of region pre area-
congrats to those who made state, im proud of yall
even if you didn't, as long as you learned something you're considered successful in my book
J Sal lmao here I am looking at my music a week before
I can relate!
Texas? Cuz that's where i am and i'm freaking out too. lol
oh i forgot that some of yall have region a week before we do
good luck guys!!!
I just advanced to it . 17 minutes is a lot of music
Comme c'est beau...
Wonderful
Una grandezza spirituale che oggi è quasi inconcepibile
È vero. Per concepire più facilmente la grandezza di Brahms basterebbe ascoltarlo più spesso e, soprattutto, più attentamente. Complimenti al Sig. Corrado Montoni.
One of the singers in the back row (he is first seen just to the right of the microphone pole at 4:35) bears a striking resemblance to the American actor Ben McKenzie, who most recently starred in "Gotham"!
Wunderschoen!!!🎶📓💟
emozionante...
Wow-near perfection. The age that produced this first embarked with Leonardo on a journey through art, as well as sublimity, truth, science and grandeur, with co-navigators like Cervantes, Rembrandt and Shakespeare, Mozart, Euler and Goya, Humboldt, Balzac, Manet and Darwin. But it seems to have dropped anchor with Brahms, having found safe harbor on enlightened shores, not of a strange, new world so much as a better, future version of some ancient one-with a last, perfect pink and gold sunset, no more empires or executions, just an elegaic 4-3 alto suspension over the tympani, the productive dominant tension before hard-earned tonic concord once so cherished by civilized societies, before tolerance and largesse were thrown overboard, before truth and wonder were washed to sea by the following nightmare century of unspeakable genocides, poisoned oceans and the global fires of war. Where’s our Velasquez, our Kant, Linnaeus or Chekhov? Our Austen, Olympe, Maxwell, Dunant, Dubois?
Рядом с Вашим Федором Михайловичем!
Не только Каин, а все европейцы в XX веке должны были увидеть все бездны ада и все бездны рая одновременно.
Love the phygrian bit at the end!
Cuanta fuerza y cuanta belleza.
This may be the sound of heaven in the first part where the poet evokes the "blessed seraphim caressed by celestial breezes" and the divinities whose blissful eyes gaze in silent and eternal clarity" but in the 2nd half the poem speaks of our miserable existence on earth "for us there is no resting place, an anguished mankind reels and plummets from one hour to the next....like water...plunged down into the unfathomable deep" (the last word "hinab" =down into). The poet Friedrich Hoelderlin may have been a key figure of German Romanticism but what was he thinking when he wrote this? He had a mental breakdown (schizophrenia ) and spent time in a clinic. "Schicksal" of the title of this piece means "fate" so this Lied (= Song) is the "Song of Fate" - our fate - and it's is not very uplifting. It never suggests we would one day join the "divinities" up above enjoy the celestial breezes. Meanwhile we can at least appreciate Brahms' music!
Merci
Brahms forever!!!!!
very spiritual feeling
We are preparing it for this coming May concert. At 296 is a ff indication on my score. Too bad, because the basses, which is my part, have the low D and will be drowned by the other fortes just as in this production.(unless we can get a couple Vladimir Millers !!)
0:27 8:59 14:07
It is difficult to decide which is the more ravishingly beautiful: this piece or Nanie. Any help out there?
Why do we have to choose?
robinboblink: My vote is for Nanie. There are few musical pieces by anyone that can compete with Nanie. Nevertheless, the Schicksal is a close second -- in my opinion.
Whichever you are listening to at the time.
Or perhaps the Alto Rhapsody, Song of the Fates, Op. 74 Motets, u.s.w.
Bravi !!!!!!!!!!!!
