Johannes Brahms

Artist(s):
Julie Cooper
Eamonn Dougan

Conductor:
Harry Christophers

Background: Brahms himself made a piano transcription of the orchestral parts of his magnificent Requiem, a piece never intended for church performance. The arrangement for two players allows a degree of intimacy, precision and contrapuntal clarity that cannot be achieved in the orchestral version. At times one is reminded of the Liebeslieder-Walzer op.52.

In 1871 this version was given its English première conducted by Brahms's friend Julius Stockhausen. It is thus appropriate that the piano used on this recording is a Bösendorfer of 1872.
