Around Town: Basking In Brahms Unbound At Disney Hall

Last Thursday evening I had the pleasure of being invited to see the LA Philharmonic at the amazing Disney Hall  for a performance of A German Requiem by Brahms.
It was 70 minutes of sublime music performed by the LA Philharmonic, the 100 voices of the Los Angeles Master Chorale, Soprano Christine Schafer and Baritone Matthias Goerne.
Conductor Gustavo Dudamel was in fine form.  He is such a rock star.
Here is the 4th Movement of the Requiem


Brahms with Caspar David Freidrich...beautiful, isn't it?

The LA Phil will be continuing their Brahms Unbound program through May 20th so if you have a chance to go, don't miss it.
