Beethoven’s Ninth and Fauré’s Requiem in Madrid and Barcelona

At the end of the 2012/2013 season, the Berliner Philharmoniker travelled to Madrid and Barcelona for a series of concerts. The programme included Beethoven’s Ninth, one of the most powerful symphonies, and Fauré’s Requiem, one of the most discreet masses for the dead in music history.
