Summary
Anja Bihlmaier leads the BBC Philharmonic and Audi Young Persons’ Choral Academy in Brahms’s German Requiem and Lili Boulanger’s Psalm 24 at The Bridgewater Hall.
Why it's fantastic
This is music that provides a profound sense of comfort, trading traditional brimstone for a warm, human embrace. It remains one of the most soothing ways to experience a full choir and orchestra, especially when paired with Lili Boulanger’s brief but incredibly high-voltage opening call to the heavens.
