This annual evening of choral-orchestral music during Passion Week always draws a capacity crowd. Brahms’ masterpiece, A German Requiem, based on biblical texts, is one of the most glorious pieces of music in the Western canon, and his virtuosic violin concerto is particularly beautiful. Arrive early in order to find a seat.
