Schicksalslied, Op. 54 Johannes Brahms song of destiny (1/2)

This is the most beautiful rendition of the Song of Fate that I've ever found. I like the slow pace. Brahms was not only inspired and influenced by Holderlin, but this Song of Fate is a poem by Holderlin - "They walk on pathways of light....."

Absolutely beautiful - though a little slower than we are singing it in the Exeter Philharmonic Choir!

So much pain, beauty and longing in a piece of music, superb! There is a lot to discover in Brahms music and it never get's boring.
