Johannes Brahms – Intermezzo, Op. 119, No. 1 (String Octet)
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.
This Intermezzo was published in 1893, the last set of pieces that he composed for piano. It was given as a birthday present to Clara Schumann (a famous piano virtuoso in the 19th century). Brahms admitted to writing these just for himself, casting them with an introverted and somewhat melancholic tone.
This is an arrangement by Richard Byrnes for 4 Violins, 3 Celli, & Bass.
It may be purchased at sheetmusicplus.com and sheetmusicdirect.com
