Quite simply: one of the most beautiful choral anthems ever written. And when you understand the complexity of the canonic framework that underpins the whole piece, it makes the genius of Brahms even more mind-boggling!
Oh my heavens. Great to hear the usual Layton/Trinity (I.e.: perfection) treatment of this jaw-dropping anthem (with Amen). Thank you! YES, music reaches places inaccessible to speech.

Well said!
Genius! Brahms lebt!
It's simply wonderful. Brahms was only 23 years old when he composed this masterpiece.
Already a master of counterpoint
Seriously, one of the most glorious Amens ever written (tied with Finzi's Full Final). Heartbreaking.
Absolutely! When the basses drop to that soft D-flat unexpectedly, you know the Heavens are about to open.
@@ArchimusikIt's Brahms offering you his benediction.
