The three Bs, yeah I heard about that. I love Bach and Beethoven, but I've never caught the bug for Brahms, and I've tried. Even while eating dinner a couple nights ago I was saying to my wife with a Brahms quartet playing in the background, "Isn't this boring?" It's too inward, I feel like I'm not included, like it wasn't written for me.
I do love Rachel Barton Pines playing the Violin Concerto, that is truly awesome, which is why I keep trying. Surely he wrote something else I would like. He is BRAHMS, afterall...
Based on Ericus Rex comments, and others liking Requiem I will check it out.
