Program

"As the waves break on the pebble beach, so our minutes hasten to their end." A poetic description (by Shakespeare) that fits the program that chamber choir Vocoza brings. With the beautiful motet W arum ist das Licht gegeben dem Mühseligen? by Johannes Brahms, a special arrangement by conductor Robert van der Vinne of Henri Duparc's Lamento .

You can also listen to Shakespeare's La vie enterieur and sonnets, set by the Polish composer Paweł Łukaszewski. But also the Elegy that Leoš Janáček wrote after the death of his daughter, and the 4 Shakespeare Songs by Jaakko Mäntyjärvi. Brahms' Schicksalslied completes the whole.
