The Nänie is a lament dating back to classical antiquity.
Brahms’ mourning song “Nänie” op. 82 is based on the poem of the same name by Friedrich Schiller. The work can be heard as a reaction to the death of the painter Anselm Feuerbach, whom Brahms greatly admired. Antonín Dvořák’s “Biblical Songs” were composed in the spring of 1894 during his stay in America. Shortly beforehand, he learned of the deaths of his fellow composers Tchaikovsky, Gounod and von Bülow – his father also died at this time. It is hardly surprising that Dvořák turned to religious texts. In the psalm settings, pleading expressions alternate with urgent and confident ones. Brahms’ “Schicksalslied” is based on a poem from Friedrich Hölderlin’s “Hyperion” – but the music, like the Requiem, ends with hope.
Conductor: Mino Marani, mezzo-soprano Milda Tubelytė.
