Product Details


Product Description

 

Johannes Brahms (1833-1897) was a German composer who crafted his works using the techniques of musical counterpoint within traditional forms. Within those strictures he created many beautiful and powerful works.

 

Barely 20 years old, Brahms wrote this in 1853. It is the second of five movements. Being his last piano sonata, it is his biggest solo piano work.

 

This movement begins with a quotation from a poem by Otto Inkermann:

 

Through evening's shade, the pale moon gleams

While rapt in love's ecstatic dreams

 

Two hearts are fondly beating.

 

This is an arrangement by Richard Byrnes for Piccolo, 2 Flutes, 2 Oboes, 4 Clarinets, 3 Bassoons, Contralto Clarinet, & Contrabassoon.

 

In addition to works by Brahms, we offer works by J.S. Bach, Debussy, Fauré, Glinka, Gottschalk, Granados, Griffes, Lotti, Mozart, Ravel, Richard Strauss, and Turina.
