Par BRAHMS JOHANNES. Le Requiem allemand n est pas une messe des morts au sens liturgique habituel du terme. Dans cette uvre en sept mouvements pour soli, ch ur et grand orchestre, Brahms a mis en musique un assemblage très personnel et bien réfléchi de textes tirés de la Bible de Luther, qui traitent tous de thèmes se rapportant à l éphémère, au deuil et à la consolation. En tant que l une des plus émouvantes compositions spirituelles, le Requiem allemand a franchi toutes les frontières linguistiques et conquis un succès universel - qui va parfaitement dans le sens du compositeur: «en ce qui concerne le texte, je dois reconnaître que pour ma part je laisserais volontiers de côté le mot allemand pour le remplacer simplement par humain». La présente édition d étude reprend le texte musical de la nouvelle édition intégrale Brahms (HN 6029), ce qui en garantit le plus haut niveau de précision scientifique. Sa préface informative décrit non seulement la genèse du Requiem allemand selon l état le plus récent de la recherche, mais traite également, sous forme critique, des légendes, suppositions et préjugés qui se sont d emblée tressés autour de l uvre. / Date parution : 2023-03-11/ Répertoire / SATB et Orchestre

Since its first complete performance in 1868 in the Cathedral of Bremen, Brahms's Ein deutsches Requiem is, without question, one of the key works in the history of the oratorio. The reputation of the work is based not only on its unusually concentrated musical structure, but also on the original conception of the text: Brahms assembled important passages from both the Old and New Testaments in Luther's translation so that thoughts on sorrow and consolation would obviously refer to one another. In contrast to many other oratorios of the 19th century Brahms places the choir, the voice of the community, in the center of this interdenominational celebration of the dead.
