Der Bräutigam

Johannes Brahms

Singing this song reminds me of the power of nature. If I close my eyes, I can see the strong, sharp mountains filled with lush trees, rising from green plains. Somewhere off to the side, a brook babbles as the stars twinkle up in the sky. As we sing this piece, I feel serene and a little melancholy at the same time, as if a more powerful and peaceful time won’t exist again.
