A performance which reveals a quite different dimension to this most monumental of all Brahms's works. Iain Farrington's arrangement - the orchestral forces distilled down to an instrumental octet inspired by the composer's own piano reduction-is a perfect match for the glorious young voices of Yale Schola Cantorum.
