Gesang and Requiem Mvt 2

I think the reason I love Gesang der Parzen by Brahms is the same reason I love the second movement of the German Requiem.  I don't have time to go into the similarities now, but maybe a future blog?  Maybe a dissertation!?  No... I'm sure it's been done.

I have not had a chance to study much today.  I had to meet with the composer of a piece we are premiering at my recital and figure out ways to add more support for the singers.  And then I had to go to a choir festival and sing (and listen) for 3 hours.  Then I had class.  Now... study.  Until a recital in 25 minutes.  Then study more.  My husband already said he would encourage and support studying for a little bit tonight.  That's good, because having a supportive spouse makes a huge difference.
