Brahms Requiem

Not sure how many choir kids we have on this website, but my opinion is that every good choir kid should know of at least one requiem. And since last year at my university we song Brahms Requiem, I choose to post that.

Here are the two parts of the 6th movement. It has a very Halloween sound (or maybe it does because we sang the whole thing near Halloween). It's great. In the first part of the 6th movement, it doesn't really pick up until about 3:45 (and we sang the first part really quickly compared to how they sing it). In the second part it's more of a really happy pick up compared to the first part.

So yeah. Here they are. First part is EPIC as fuck once it picks up. Seriously. If you're a choir kid and you get to sing the whole Brahms Requiem, you are going to be kicking yourself the whole way through saying how much you hate it, but in the end, you'll love it.
