  Well our oldest son loves Brahms and I am a big Tchaikovsky fan so this is practically a holiday. To celebrate we listened to both composers for several hours today. I didn't raise a glass of anything today but if I did it probably would have been something with vodka. ;-)
  
  May the Earth rest lightly upon you gentlemen and may we never lose the capacity to appreciate your works.

  I thought about the Brahms Requiem a few days ago when comparing concerts with longish programs with some colleagues. I'm currently playing a short series of Bach B Minor Mass concerts, and that work alone runs about two hours and fifteen minutes or so.
  
  Brahms has the honor of being one of very few nineteenth century composers I really like.
  
  Anyway, belated flask-raising to them both.

    I'm attending a Mississippi Chorus performance of Brahms Saturday night.
    
    Yay for classical composers/musicians!
