In the early 2000s, the Berlin Philharmonic brought the ASO Chorus to sing the work for Brahms' fellow countrymen. Find out why this watershed choral masterpiece has become a defining work for Atlanta. Hear Music Director Nathalie Stutzmann lead soloists and the acclaimed Atlanta Symphony Orchestra and Chorus in Brahms's monumental hymn of consolation.
