Brahms enriched the genre of chorus and orchestra with two impressive works from the early 1880s: In 1881, he set a text to Schiller's Nanie (Op.82, four-part chorus and orchestra) and the next year (1882) he set Goethe's text for Gesang der Parzen, Op.89 (Song of the Fates) which explores the concept of fate as it relates to mankind. The text admonishes us to "Fear the Gods! They hold the power In eternal hands And can use it As they please." Brahms' setting portrays the contrast between the capriciousness of the Fates and the uncertainty of mortals in a variety of ways. Unabridged digitally enhanced reprint of the composer's own vocal score that was issued by Breitkopf and Hartel in the early 20th century. Matches the widely available reprint orchestral parts offered by E.F. Kalmus (A2579) and Luck's Music Library (08476).
