I decided to play Brahms’ masterpiece Ein deutsches Requiem today because the Barnard-Columbia Chorus is going to be performing this work next Friday, April 15th (and I’ll be performing in it, as one of the choristers!) There’s still plenty of time to buy tickets! The concert will be at the Church of the Ascension (221 W 107th Street, between Broadway and Amsterdam), from 8-10 pm. You can buy tickets online at eventbrite.com, which you can access on our Facebook event page, https://www.facebook.com/events/1309573565726700/ (you don’t need a Facebook account to access the ticket link here). I hope you’ll be able to join us!
