Dresdner Festspielorchester – René Jacobs – Brahms CANCELLED COVID

René Jacobs, an internationally celebrated expert in historically informed performance practice. Together with the Dresden Music Festival’s own orchestra, Dresdner Festspielorchester he presents Brahms’ »Deutsches Requiem« at the Kulturpalast (June 10, Dresden) and Konzerthaus (June 11, Berlin), dedicating himself to the original sound of the romantic repertoire. The work is one of the most important pieces in the choral canon. Its personal selection of texts and compositional density were already praised by Clara Schumann: »The profound seriousness, combined with the enchantment of the poetry, has a wonderful, harrowing and consoling effect.« The audience may look forward to a moving performance of this outstanding work on historical instruments.
