Brahms - Warum

Warum / Brahms

No need to write my own text if it has been done so thoroughly already:

Brahms achieves with his tempo and dynamics, a heavy emotional load in ´Warum ist das Licht gegeben dem Mühseligen?´. The perfect balance between the motet contrapuntal technique and romantic expression, makes this work one of the absolute highlights of choral literature.

This dramatic powerful music was written in 1877 during a peaceful summer holiday. Not sure how you are going to spend your next holiday?
