I think the Brahm's Piano Concerto No.2 in Bb, Op.83 is wonderful

I first heard this concerto when I met my second husband and it will be forever linked to my emotional experience at that time of my life. Fabulous!

Is the German Requiem not the most wonderful thing you've ever heard?

I've just joined. It appears that there hasn't been a post for a while. I'm not sure what to say except that I love Brahms.

Four hand piano music on Naxos

One of my favorite labels, Naxos, is up to volume number thirteen of this very wonderful series. Mostly arranged so that Clara Schumann could play the larger works over with him before the finished product, the results are outstanding. The team of Silke-Thora Matthies and Christian Kohn, do a remarkable job on excellently recorded discs and at the budget price Naxos charges this set belongs in every Brahms lovers collection.

I love much music from across the board, but Brahms who writes so fully developed music is one of my favorites of all time.

I've just now found the group, and will try to manage time for a more detailed description of the set at a later date. I will go so far as to say, you cannot go wrong by picking up any of the thirteen thus far released.

I love a lot of composers

But I'll always come back to Brahms. The symphonies. Cello sonatas.
I play his organ music -not every piece, they aren't all good. But most of them are superb.

Then there is a work he didn't even write. When I was in college, I fractured my right arm. I had to play left-hand piano music. I was given the Brahms-Bach Chaconne in D minor.
That remains one of the most holy works for me in the entire corpus. I still play it for the left-hand alone, as intended.

Lots of instruments have borrowed it, but when the piano version is played, it sounds like Brahms.
