Brahms's Schicksalslied
Mozart's Mass in C Minor
Brahms's Schicksalslied (Song of Fate) and Mozart's Mass in C Minor are masterpieces of personal expression. Brahms's poignant work explores themes of fate and human destiny; Mozart's Mass, left unfinished only a few years before his death, set new standards of brilliance for sacred music at the end of the eighteenth century.
