Johannes Brahms – A German Requiem

June 5, 2025

The Gilbert & Sullivan Very Light Opera Company is pleased to present Johannes Brahms: “A German Requiem,” with chorus, soloists, and orchestra under the masterful direction of Dr. Randal Buikema.

Prepare to be moved by the soul-stirring masterpiece, Johannes Brahms’ “A German Requiem.” This monumental work, which Brahms describes as “sacred, but non-liturgical,” is inspired by human themes of life, death, and hope, and transcends the traditional requiem with its profound and comforting message.

Immerse yourself in the rich, emotional depth of Brahms’s most personal and tender compositions.  

Relish in the soaring harmonies and haunting melodies that have captivated audiences for generations. 

This is more than a concert; it’s an unforgettable musical journey that speaks to the heart and soul.

This performance will be offered without an admission fee.  Donations to cover the cost are welcomed and encouraged.
