Later audiences nevertheless came to appreciate Beethoven’s masterful contrapuntal writing, which are a prec...

  • Gloria in Excelsis Deo, BWV 191
    Johann Sebastian Bach
    An interesting case of self-borrowing. Bach took music from this work for his own Mass in B-minor (Part 1 corresponds to the Gloria in excelsis Deo, Part 2 to the Domine Deus, Part 3 to the Cum sancto spiritu). This unusual cantata, the only one with a Latin text, may have been written to celebrate the Peace of Dresden (which ended the 2nd Silesian war) and first performed on C...

    Brahms composed the piece in 1881, in memory of his deceased friend Anselm Feuerbach. Nanie (Song of Lamentation) is not about simple despair or mere complaint.

(Even Beauty must die), and the tension between the veracity of the ...
