Timeless texts of consolation

Because Lutherans do not have a fixed funeral service, Brahms selected texts from various Biblical sources for his German Requiem. Resident artists Vox Luminis trace a path from those texts to some of the familiar and less-familiar pages of their core repertoire, works that set to music exactly the same texts that Brahms selected.
