Sacred without being religious, monumental without being overwhelming, *A German Requiem* is a song of solace, an ode to life written by a man seeking to transcend his own pain in order to offer comfort to the living. It resonates powerfully within each of us, like a path to serenity. In this production, where the set—strikingly realistic—depicts the fuselage of a crashed airplane, emotion takes shape, and the chorus becomes a community of survivors in motion.

A deeply moving musical and visual experience, where the grandeur of Brahms meets our era’s quest for peace.

Running time: 1 hour 30 minutes.
