With his Schicksalslied (Song of Destiny), inspired by a text by Friedrich Hölderlin, Brahms created a timeless piece of music with his personal interpretation of the idea of destiny. The work is impressive both in the concert hall and in a sacred space.
With the publication of this arrangement for chamber orchestra, smaller choirs, as well as choirs with more limited resources of space or finance, can now perform this work too. The scoring (for flute, oboe, clarinet, horn, timpani, and strings) is identical with the chamber orchestra version of the German Requiem (Carus 27.055/50), so that the two works can easily be combined in a concert program. A trumpet and trombone can be added ad libitum. The choral parts match the original version, so that the vocal score and choral score from that version can be used.
Major choral work can also be performed by smaller choir
Wind and brass parts of the original version reduced to just seven single instruments
Vocal scores and chorus scores from the original version can be used.
